Editing 2swagg Pass

The '''2swagg Pass''' is the optional paid membership on [[2swagg]]. It was introduced to let a holder skip the site's CAPTCHA when posting or reporting, and to give them a cosmetic icon.

== Current status ==
The main perk is effectively moot: [[SomeBois]] '''turned the site CAPTCHA off entirely''' after users complained about it (posts-per-hour jumped once it was gone). With no CAPTCHA for anyone, a Pass currently just gets you the icon.

As of the site's first two weeks, per SomeBois, '''no one had bought a Pass'''. SomeBois describes it as really a donation with a cosmetic perk attached and has floated relabelling it as a "donation" outright to head off the complaints it draws from other imageboards.

== Framing ==
The purchase page presents the Pass as community-originated rather than administrator-imposed: "The idea for Passes came directly from the community and were introduced as a way for users to show their support and receive a convenient feature in return."

A Pass account is one of only two kinds of credentialed identity on the site, the other being staff. See [[FAQ and glossary#Accounts|FAQ and glossary]].
