So, is the Hexbear mod situation okay or do we have the send in the tanks? (hexbear.net)

Edit: this situation has now been resolved, according to anonymous sources... only vigorous self-crit and two fights.

For legal purposes, this is a joke.

Can anybody explain me TheSituation?

As I understand it Admins did the stupid rename, everyone told them they didn't like their pointless change, and instead of backing off they did a tantrum followed by users doing bigger tantrums

Why not revert back to one week ago and that's it problem solved

I guess... I've also heard something about cult of personality regarding TC69, and mod bans, under the veil of irony and humor

But I think the mods are already self-critting, by now

I think it's less "cult of personality" than "clash of personalities"

Huh, that makes more sense... wait, who was the other personality opposed...? Was it Alaskaball? PM_Me_Your_Foucaults?

Don't you love farce?
My fault, I fear.
I thought that you'd want what I want.
Sorry, my dear.
But where are the tanks?
Quick, send in the tanks!
Don't bother, they're here...
