 /int/craft, being a 4chan server, inherits the lexicon of 4chan. The playerbase has also developed some of its own slang over the years.

-===== Jannies =====
-A **janny** or more uncommonly a **madmin** refers to players of higher authority in a server. Both a server's moderators and developers are typically referred to as jannies. Some [[xethyr|especially]] [[rurik|dedicated]] [[onions|incels]] may act as head janny and server developer at the same time.
-They work for free, by the way.

 **Autism** is a superhuman condition that [[Falklands|most]] [[onions|/int/]][[thespookybone|craft]] [[roguelich|players]] have. Players with this condition are immune to propaganda and have obscenely high server playtimes during iterations, but suffer from allergies to women, grass, and social interaction.
-Someone or something that is **autistic** is associated with extreme dedication, often to an unhealthy extent. As Rolling Stone puts it, "the term 'autist' is used in online cultures as a multipurpose pejorative, often to describe someone with hyperfocus".((https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/all-american-nazis-628023/))

-===== Insiding =====
-**Insiding** is the act of joining a town to grief or loot it from the inside, as compared to raiding or declaring war on a town. Insiding is usually done for either the personal gain of oneself or another town, or out of spite.

+**Diplojewing** involves manipulating the politics of the server or even the community to achieve a particular goal. Diplojews are often one of the leading figures in a faction. Methods of diplojewing heavily depend on the individual, and often vary in nefariousness.
-In modern iterations, the act of diplojewing before a server launch is known colloquially as **pre-serb diplo**, which is frowned upon by some parts of the community. Pre-serb diplo has only become easier in recent years now that /int/craft iterations and metagroups are often organized on Discord servers.

 ===== Ghoul doctrine, Ghouliphate =====
-The **Ghoul doctrine** is a recruitment strategy where a town leader invites any and every newly-joined, unaffiliated player to his town. A **ghouliphate** is a large town or nation whose population was largely recruited with this strategy. Ghouliphates are usually weaker in warfare than their population numbers suggest, due to the minimally low bar for entry. They have been less effective in recent years due to the rise of [[metagroups]].

 A territory in a [[Nodes]] map is often referred to as a **node**. A "node" more properly refers to a [[nodes#what_is_a_node|resource node]] within a territory.

+===== Pre-server diplo =====
+The act of 'diplojewing' before a server officially releases. Oftentimes performed weeks if not months in advance, depending of the player. Many experienced players in the community denounce the practice and claim it can waste the energy of those who participate in it and cause them to be burned out before the server even opens. Some jannies have gone as far as placing a nominal ban on the practice, to little effect.
