Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I feel mistreated (hexbear.net)
submitted 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) by Wisconcom@hexbear.net to c/chat@hexbear.net
 

I made a post asking what the key differences between Hexbear and Lemmygrad were, a question I already asked in the Matrix chat, and everyone there gave rude responses and acted as though I was trolling when I was just honestly curious as I never took the time to really engage with Hexbear before. It almost made me cry.

I have problems with my internet use. Every hour, sometimes half-hour, I check back into Hexbear. I suffer from severe OCD in combination with other mental illnesses; I can't help it. I just want somewhere to be welcome without being treated like a rapine beast for a past which I can't alter.

I am not here to cause drama or troll. I have deliberately avoided political arguments to avoid harming the community's flow. Yes, I have done foolish things in the past when I was 15, but have not we all?

I came here under the pseudonym I am most commonly remembered by as a peace gesture to a community which I have disrespected to indicate that I would not hide who I am and I was being honest for once, and I hope people would respect me too.

Is this too much to ask?

I genuinely don't remember you but if I was an asshole then sorry about that

I think sometimes we get a bit too jumpy, myself included

Unless somebody comes in here spouting straight up anti communist or fascist shit I try to remain non hostile and view Hexbear as the safe zone where there isn't any PvP (or at least a way lower likelihood of being invaded)

In these times when it has become more apparent than ever and more obvious than ever that the west is ran by monstrous pedophiles, I welcome anyone who understands this fundamental truth and that it means that amerikkka was always evil and deserves all the hate it gets from us and so much more

Anyway my edibles hiit pretty hard while I was writing this, thank you

Drink some water. And maybe keep a Powerade/Gatorade/Pedialyte in clutch.
