ABOUT
About SQUIDS101
SQUIDS101 is a community forum built around squads — topic-based groups where people post, comment, and follow discussions that interest them. It's built with a South African audience in mind, covering everything from general chat to specific interests.
HOW IT'S PUT TOGETHER
Squads, posts, and a few terms
Squad
A topic-based group. Anyone can look through a squad's posts — joining is what lets you post there yourself.
Post
Something shared to a squad. Other members can reply, and a squad's feed can be sorted by Hot, New, or Top.
Frienders
SQUIDS101's term for the people you've connected with. A profile lists a Frienders count alongside Following.
Verified
A mark shown on a small number of accounts and squads. More on what it means below.
VERIFICATION
What the verified mark means
A verified mark shows on a small number of accounts and squads. It isn't tied to follower count, activity, or age, and it can't be requested, bought, or applied for — it's given directly by SQUIDS101.
KEEPING SQUADS IN ORDER
Guidelines and reporting
Squads follow SQUIDS101's Community Guidelines. Posts and comments can be reported for review, and the people who help run a squad carry an Admin label on their profile.
