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.

    There's drama all over hexbear all the time, what are you talking about? And meat eaters aren't just "responding," they're coming in and engaging in wrecker behavior and trolling. That wouldn't tolerated in any other comm either.

        lol. Bait apparently = lamenting the fact that carnists can't stand that we exist. (And the flies, as you call them come in and prove that very point every time).

        Also what you said is not even true, considering that a post asking for better moderation has the most comments in quite a long ass time. And the recent runner up is only because a wrecker troll insisted on coming in and proving the point of the post.

        For my part I will admit that I keep falling into the trap of thinking that otherwise seemingly intelligent communists would be more self aware, but nope.
