Nameroll is a 2swagg feature that, instead of showing the usual "Anonymous" on a post, randomly assigns one of a pool of joke names.
Known names in the pool
- Toshiaki and its Japanese spelling としあき, a recurring joke identity from Futaba Channel (2chan), the Japanese imageboard. On Futaba the default anonymous name is "としあき", and "Toshiaki" became treated as a single recurring person as a running gag. 2swagg borrows it.
- Swagglet
- Swaggtard
- Swaggtan, shared with the site mascot
- Opsec Demon
- several more names rendered in custom colored or stylized text
The list above is what has been observed; it is not guaranteed complete.
Why it exists
It fits the site's general habit of turning small UI details into bits (see also the Homepage taglines and the crude board titles). Getting a funny name rolled onto an otherwise throwaway post is part of the joke.
