Default Tags

Always typing in the name of the tag you want to send a message to can be something of a bother, especially if you're usually only sending messages to one tag. To make things a bit easier, we added the concept of a "default tag". If you send a message without the ": " piece in front (and it's not a command beginning with a period), we'll assume you meant to send the message to your default tag.

For example, if my default tag was ultimate, I could just send "Pick-up game at Cal Anderson Park NOW!" to Swaggle, and it would be sent to everyone with the "ultimate" tag.

You can set your default tag and find out what default tag is by sending:

  • .DEFAULT : Sets your tag
  • .DEFAULT: Will return your default tag

New users will automatically have their default tag set to whatever tag they add first.
