I've noticed a lot of :morshupls: and :debatebro-l: from carnists going unmoderated in this community even after being reported and was wondering why. I decided to have a look at the list of mods to find out, and discovered the following:

  • @ella has not made a post or comment on Hexbear since December 2021.
  • @DashEightMate has not made a post or comment on Hexbear since May 2021.
  • @Dirtbag has never made a post or comment on Hexbear.
  • @Kanna posts or comments on a fairly regular basis - once a week or so - but this clearly isn't enough for the only active mod of this community.

If c/vegan is going to be in any sense useable as a place for vegans to discuss our ideas in a friendly environment, rather than yet another platform on which we must battle carnists at every turn, we're going to need some new blood on the mod team.

    You are literally doing the most unpleasant job possible. You could be spending 1/10th the time on it that you're doing now, and I'd still kiss your shoes in thanks.

    Thanks so much for all you do.

      Haha I appreciate that. I'm going to make an effort to use it more though. When we were doing recipe weeks, shitposting, and efforting posting regularly here this comm was pretty great. It would be nice to see that again
