A capcode is a badge shown next to a staff member's post on 2swagg that marks it as an official post in a given role, for example Taro ## Developer.

Badge tiers

Six tiers exist, based on the icon files in the site's public image library:

Tier Holder
Founder SomeBois
Admin SomeBois
Manager midsoy
Moderator multiple, including Princess (who runs /mlp/)
Developer Taro (also the security lead)
Janitor ("Janny") multiple, not individually named

SomeBois holds both Founder and Admin. The rest of the tiers are held by other people; only the ones above have been named.

The badge is not a hard cap on access. Taro carries the Developer badge but has effectively unrestricted access; the limits there are by choice, not by permission. See Taro#Role and authority.

A handle "Swaggbois" has been seen with a ## Swaggmin capcode, which is not one of the six tiers; per SomeBois, "Swaggbois" is just a nameroll name.
