Hexbear's new head of operations just dropped, and their way of dealing with the fallout of their last struggle session is to hand bans out like candy to their concerned and disillusioned users while throwing out "epic" quips like insecure teenagers along the way coupled with their communication (and seemingly contempt) towards their own userbase which isn't helping their allegations at all and the revelations that were learned about Hexbear's moderators and admins from their most recent struggle session.

The last few days have honestly shaken my faith in Hexbear and their team and I hope the mods and admins at Lemmygrad are monitoring the situation closely.

    it would also be nice for people to recognize the amount of unpaid labor that goes into maintaining spaces like this.

    Yes, it would be nice, but that shouldn't be the motivation. If a mod feels like it's too much work, they should ask for help or stop moderating, cause otherwise they'll look for ways to make the work easier and that's often to the detriment of users.
