Editing Site culture

2swagg calls itself "an off-color, absurd-humor, spamming and raiding website," and it means it. The crude tone is not an accident or a moderation failure, it is the point of the place. This page is the hub for how that plays out.

== The mascot ==
* '''[[Swaggtan]]''', the site's pink anime-girl mascot, on the banners and the 404 page, drawn by the mod [[Slashstabslice]].

== Running gags built into the site ==
* '''[[Homepage taglines]]''', a random one-liner on the front page, new one every reload, ranging from silly to deliberately offensive.
* '''[[Nameroll]]''', posts can get a random joke name instead of "Anonymous" (Toshiaki, Swagglet, Opsec Demon, and so on).
* '''[[Fortunes]]''', put <code>fortune</code> in the email field for a random cookie-fortune line, which the pool then escalates well past cookie-fortune territory.
* Several [[Board directory|board titles and subtitles]] are crude or self-mocking on purpose ("Pony Faggotry", "VEGETA", "BASEDpapers").
* [[/r/]] is a board whose entire bit is being an obvious honeypot that tells you not to post in it.

== Post toys ==
Small features you trigger while posting:
* '''[[Emotes]]''', 38 <code>:shortcode:</code> images.
* '''[[Kaotype]]''', type <code>;smug</code> and similar for an auto-expanding kaomoji.
* '''[[Checkem]]''', the DUBS / TRIPS / QUADS / ULTRA GET tier system for notable post numbers.
* '''[[Flags]]''', a per-board flag icon. [[/mlp/]] has its own ~300 pony flags; a few other boards share a small deliberately edgy set.

== The "guide" ==
* '''[[SomeBois Guide for New Users]]''', a satirical section on the rules page telling newcomers who to "bully." A joke, not policy, but a deliberate part of the site's self-presentation.

== Rivalries ==
* '''[[Rivalries]]''', constant banter with other small imageboards, especially on [[/swag/]] and [[/raid/]].

== Imageboard vocabulary ==
The usual terms apply here and are used the same way: "newfag", "namefag", "tripfag", "anon", greentext, [[FAQ and glossary#Post and thread terms|sage / bump / GET]]. See [[FAQ and glossary]] and [[Tripcodes]].

== Old content ==
* '''[[Thread archive]]''', dead threads get listed at each board's <code>/archive.html</code> with an excerpt, so they stay readable after they drop off the board.

== See also ==
* [[People]]
* [[Rules]]
* [[Site history]]
