Social classes

Across 2b2t are "social classes", or terms used by regulars to differentiate themselves from new players. The names are often argued and varied, however most players go with the Oldfag, Midfag, Newfag system. The system is also vague and is usually determined by how the majority of people think.

Social Classes have been around since the start of the server with the first signs of their usage during the 4Chan period where the 4channers first began to use the terms Oldfag, Midfag, and Newfag, corresponding to the basically constant use of the word 'fag' to address people as is seen on 4chan even today.

The social classes itself are worth of no value, and are only labels made by players of the server. These classes are not official. Most classes include the suffix -fag due to carcinogenic community but does not necessarily refer to gay people and should not be looked at as someone calling someone else gay. If you think that someone is calling someone else gay by calling them a fag, you've clearly not spent enough time on the internet.

This is all very ironic in it's being because Anarchy is supposed to be a classless society where in this case, the community seems to have come up with a mix of Capitalism and Communism to describe themselves and others. This can most easily be described as 'Fagism'

General Social Classes

 * Ancientfags - a term referring to players who are still playing in 2b2t since 2010. Their numbers are extremely low, and most of them have either quit out of boredom or play occasionally. They are typically the most respected players.
 * Oldfags - Usually players that have been around for a good four or so years and have accomplished great things. There are still few players that still play 2b2t since 2011/2012, an example of which is the iconic Popbob
 * Middlefags - Not quite oldfags but still up there in the hierarchy. Most of them joined during the Second Incursion, formed Valkyria and the Third Incursion, and were iconic members of Team Veteran.
 * Newfags - The newest players of 2b2t, the word also being used synonymously as an insult for someone knowing little about the server or performing very poorly in basic server activities. These players have less than or around a year of presence on the server. Most newfags spend their time lurking around spawn, naked, unable to accomplish much of anything successfully due to either their extreme lack of survival skills in normal Minecraft or their immaturity as a person and player.
 * Newfriends/Newspawn - Basically what Torogadude uses in place of the word 'newfag'. It's an acceptable replacement and is generally seen as a more polite way of addressing newer players. Ex. "Come here, newfriend, I'll give you some steak and wood"
 * Rusherfags/Rushers/Junefags - Another synonymous term for Newfag. These players joined after June 1, 2016, when YouTuber 'TheCampingRusher' uploaded a video titled "THE OLDEST SERVER IN MINECRAFT", subsequently bringing in thousands of players, leading up to the creation of the queue and the beginning of The War, The Hype Era (Also called "The Rusher Summer" by some players) and the rise of many groups across the server. These players typically came from the video Rusher posted and aren't really over the age of 13 in most cases.

Rusher's Social Classes

 * OGs - The extremely broad and vague term created by TheCampingRusher to define Oldfags as a group of which he planned to defeat in The War. The reasoning behind his using of this name was his reluctance to swear, let alone hack on the server.
 * Nakeds- A term used by Rusher to refer to the Newfags/Rushers at spawn who did not have any gear.

Extra Social Classes

 * Jewfag/Jewtuber- A term used to describe YouTubers on the server which the general playerbase thinks is basically just in it for the money. This can be used ironically or as an insult depending on the context and the person it involves.
 * Frenchfag - a term originally to be used for the fans of AgentGB due to him being a french youtuber. It was barely used as AgentGB decided not to make a series about the server however it was spammed in his video's chat and towards some small influx of french players joining the server.
 * Facepuncher - a term not commonly used anymore by players but is still applicable. The term refers not only to players of the Facepunch Republic but to anyone who joined due to the Facepunch forums, similar to how Rushers not only applies to players in Team Rusher but rather anyone who joined due to Rusher. Only a few players continue to wear this title such as Popbob and xcc2. It is synonymous with Ancientfag.
 * 4channer - another term rarely used anymore that refers to anyone that joined 2b2t due to 4chan. It was also used to refer to the players in the long disbanded 4channers group. Unlike the facepuncher term, players who did join due to 4chan barely use the title. Offtopia and THEJudgeHolden are a few examples of players who would be labeled a 4channer. It is synonymous with Ancientfag.

Discrepancies
There is no agreed time limit at which a player becomes a midfag, or an oldfag. Some claim that anyone that joined after 2011 is a newfag, others say that those who joined before 2015 are oldfags, and some say that those who joined in 2013 are midfags. It's all subjective, really. It usually is that players who joined during the first two years of the server are ancient/oldfags(2010-2012), the second two years are midfags (2013-2015), and current time are newfags (2016-Present). As years go on, these intervals will most likely grow by 1 year (ie after 2018, oldfags will be players who joined in 2010-2013, midfags will be players who joined 2014-2016, and newfags will be players who joined from 2017-present.)

While these terms can be used in a hostile manner, on 2b2t they are a part of everyday conversation. When used in a hostile manner, it will usually be for midfags who claim themselves to be a oldfag and everyone else is a newfag, when a newfag asks newby questions like "can i hack on this server?", "how do i get out of spawn?", and "how do I get food? Can someone gimme food?", and for oldfags who claim to be gods and untouchables on the server because of how long they have played on the server (cocky and snotty douches basically).
