This is directed at nobody in particular. I know this is a rough time of year for a lot of people and just to remind everyone to think of the person on the other end of the line. We're almost through it, the light is coming back, the Holidays (TM) are over and we made it through another horribly fucked up year. On behalf of the hexbear mods we love you all and we want to keep this place being as cool as it is.
Also want to take the time to acknowledge some of our most consistently wholesome posters like @Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net and @corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net I honestly don't know how yall keep it up and I salute you.
I could list many others but they are the two that first popped into my head and I wanted to get this post out there sooner than later.
I've enjoyed this site over the years under different user names, but I've felt welcomed every time.
It's funny because at first, I thought if I made a new account and posted as normal, referencing in-jokes and stuff, that I would be seen as suspicious, or even a wrecker if I brought up genuine concerns I had.
But every time, I'm met with genuine openness and the benefit of the doubt and that means a lot.
