WTF is happening on Hexbear? (lemmygrad.ml)

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.

Anyways, this is yet another case of the news mega being the best part of Hexbear.

Facts. I only really go on Hexbear for the news mega, I'd personally don't want to lose it because a bunch of admins wanted to make Hexbear their own fiefdom.

EDIT: Even though I rarely go on the TheDunkTank if at all, I do hope they get their comm reinstated.

Realistically, if we somehow lose the news mega, we'll just move to lemmygrad.

And the news mega actually tries to implement some form of democratic centralism:

It turns out people are less likely to get mad at major changes if they're actually the one submitting and voting on those changes.

News communities from Hexbear are something that I should enjoy a lot. I don't want to lose 'em

How I can trust you that it won't? How can I be sure that I won't wake up to some sudden change that only ruins it for the worse and that some admin won't give some bizarre reasoning for it?

maybe because I'm the one that started it and kept it going until other more skilled and willing people stepped up to turn it into what it is today.

Settle down it's a megathread

I just want the situation to be resolved in no time. Continued tensions may result in some people moving to Grad.
