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?

    One of the major founders of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party, which was the precursor of the Communist Party of Russia, Georgii Plekhanov led a life-long struggle alongside his comrades in growing the class consciousness of the workers and peasants of the Russian Empire. He supported the Bolsheviks over the Mensheviks and was a respected figure of authority by Lenin - even though they had disagreements - and the Communists.

    While I'm not acquainted with any of his works nor knowledgeable on his biography, I do know that he had his good moments in history and his not so good moments in history, and that's okay.
