Hexbear has been getting a lot more attention and activity as of late, and while it is very fun to dunk on the new people posting on the site in bad faith, a post to appreciate the new good faith users contributing to the site seems like a great idea.

So, what new users do you appreciate, and what should other potential new users do to get the same reception?

They haven't announced defederation yet but one of the admins mentioned that defederation was "inevitable" after the brigading. There's a second discussion thread that's explicitly only for Blahaj members and there it's pretty mixed. I put in my two cents though, and I'm hopeful that defederation isn't going to happen.

We haven't been brigading so much as there's just a lot of us and we all have a mental illness to post as much as possible, but I can see how that would make us seem like a sudden swarm of us. We're like flies to shit. We're little piggies who love slop.

We're also haven't had the chance for 3 years to post as a group so we were ready to blow

It's probably never going to stop completely, but it should be a lot less frequent after another week or two from now
