The twitter community I chose to identify with is the NBA 2K community. I chose this community because I play this game a lot, and ultimately 2K “fixes” their game based on the fans reaction/feedback on twitter. Different hashtags and language that only people in the 2K community understand include:
#Make2KGreatAgain: the purpose of this hashtag is for 2K players to complain about how bad the game has become compared to its predecessors; or to complain about the most known/common issues that 2K developers fix or don’t fix (mainly “don’t fix)
#FreeLSK: This hashtag started to surface once a popular 2K youtuber named Kristopher London aka LSK was permanently banned on NBA 2K servers (causing him to buy a new playstation). People in the community (myself included) were upset and showed support for LSK. The hashtag became so overused in the community that the 2K developers themselves used it in the NBA 2K youtube videos.
Fav if Late: Those 3 words have become a common trolling tweet among the community. This started when the developers started to release locker codes (a 25 character code that must be entered into the game in order to get what they are promoting, usually a player for the “MyTeam” game mode) and the codes are usually quantity based, which basically means that the people who enter in the code the fastest will get the code (as long as there are still quantities available). Usually there would be no more quantities after about 15 seconds of the code being released. So “Fav if Late” will usually be the tweets that follow.

#LockerCodesMustGo: This hashtag usually comes up when people didn’t get the player that they were promoting or when people find it unfair that the people who actually play the “MyTeam” game mode for hours do not get rewarded with the best cards (players) in the game and that the people who type in a code the fastest are getting the best cards. This hashtag was more prominent in 2K15 and 2K16, this hashtag caused 2k to “get rid” of them completely in NBA 2K17 (until they randomly brought them back, see above image)
Fix Your Servers: EVERY NBA 2K Player (especially those that play online against others) says this at some point in playing the game. The NBA 2K servers are notoriously bad, that even those with great internet connection with get lagged out of a game and take a loss (2K gives out loses to both players if the connection to the servers are lost, instead of not letting the game count)
Two of some of the main contributors to the NBA 2K Twitter community are @Ronnie2K and @ItsShake4ndbake
Ronnie2K is the Community Manager at 2K Sports, he tweets mainly about the video game (news and codes and such) he also tweets about what’s going on in the NBA.
For Example this tweet from Ronnie plays on the fact that the Warriors blew a 3-1 lead to the Cavs in the NBA Finals last year (which has been a continuous joke in the sports world since June)
Deron Williams wearing a 31 jersey w/ Cavs. He's worn 8 his whole career. Warriors blew a 3-1 lead. Coincidence?

And this tweet is a poll for a promotion that NBA 2K is doing where they will show 4 players ( like in the screenshot) and the community gets to vote on who is player of the month and the winner of the player of the month will get a new card in the MyTeam mode of the game that the community can use.
.@Giannis_An34 is my pick for February’s #2KMoment of the Month. What's yours? https://t.co/LuR6pELe49#GreekFreak

ShakeAndBake is a youtuber that just so happens to be very active on twitter he also tweets about what’s going on in the NBA, but always throws out new ideas that 2K should do to improve their game.

For example, 2K drops an upgraded version of a player’s card in MyTeam if they had a great performance from the night before. This is him just asking for new cards.
We better get some moments cards tomorrow they have been slacking past few days, tons of big performances tonight

This tweet is about locker codes, the community has either wanted locker codes banned or get timed locker codes (like in Madden and FIFA).
We gotta fight for timed codes, the system can be improved and be way more fair!

This was a conversation I had with my friend Raymond who also plays the MyTeam mode in 2K and also follows most people in the 2K community. Which he found out the same information I did from Twitter.
This is a video game, so what the community likes (or doesn’t like) carries on over to the next years game. The developers sit there and see what worked (or didn’t) and try to fix it to make the next game that they come out with better than the last.
