Yesterday was intense for everyone. Some quick updates as of last night:

  • A large amount of the sitemod team has stepped away from the project. Other comrades from the community have volunteered to pitch in and been modded.
  • Some core devs also stepped away from the project. For the time being, you should not expect any further development of new features or bug fixes as we reassess our capacity.
  • Main has been locked. No immediate plans to unlock.
  • Registration is closed and will remain so for the time being.

We 100% understand and support everyone who left yesterday and are also looking forward to the next stage of Hexbear.

We're probably not going to be making any additional announcements or formal communication until after the weekend at the earliest. Thanks.

    Having been off for here for 6 days, I have been extremely surprised that the veganism debate wasn't immediately treated by the same rules as sectarianism*. That's been a pretty successful model for this site.

    I remember before that we'd regularly have the anarkiddies/tankies threads that did nothing but drive people away. Once the rule was put in place, those tendency fights ended.

    *Functionally on this site it's a political tendency, you're welcome to check out this sticky if you are unsure, even though there are arguments to be had about it being a philosophy/practice.
