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?

Omg I wish everywhere did that.

I had a conversation earlier that I wanted to disengage with because the person was strawmanning me and it was clear, after pointing out to them already that’s what they were doing, I wasn’t going to have a productive discussion, so I said I was no longer going to interact and got 2 reply meaaages to it, basically trying to egg me on to re-engage, one of which said it was ironic I was telling him I was disengaging.. Simply because I told him I was doing so?? (Which I did not respond to, for obvious reasons)

I love that that will be respected here. 💜
