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!

It’s great, all the dumbest posters on the site are now all posting on one account. Much easier to block comfy-cool

I'm going to say it: if we're going to respect dunk shitposting culture as a pillar of the site than I see no reason why we should not respect multi user account shitposting culture as well

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Synthesis: it is still permissible to dunk on the multi poster account

[–] SocialistDovahkiin@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

when someone shits on dunking it starts a 5 day long struggle session (granted: kept alive by other controversies of more significance) to keep the bits flowing but when someone shits on the puppy(girl?) collective bit account everyone claps and nods (not misogynistic though /s)

And the Furtive Pygmy, so easily forgotten... catgirl-peace

[–] Saoirse@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

crossposting this to c/games with a Control screenshot.

The FBC can have a little fucking with the fabric of reality at the behest of an extradimensional collective with unknown motivations, as a treat

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

wojak-nooo noooo we totalyy aren't fucking with the fabric of reality we're researchers we understand what we are doing can't you see how we have classified things? noooo we aren't haplessly lost noooo

I feel completely neutral doggirl-thumbsup

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 8 points 2 days ago

Like the FBI? Yeah I hate them too. Shot my uncle don't you know! My uncle was all "ARF ARF BORK BORK BORK BORKBORK Grrrrrr" and they shot him dead.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's fine and will probably wear itself out soonish anyway

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

Keep telling yourself that. You don't know what you are missing.

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 16 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Better than John Kerry posting but it's neutral for me

[–] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago

You have no idea how deeply in the pits of my soul the desire to kerrypost resides. I think it’s a trauma response.

[–] NewAcctWhoDis@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It's going to fade out, then someone will use it to post something abhorrent (again) and it'll get banned.

[–] oscardejarjayes@hexbear.net 11 points 3 days ago (2 children)

People said it wouldn't last 24 hours, but it's done quite well

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I think we are very lucky the first person decided to make it doggirl themed. Had it had no theme or another theme then I think we would not have lasted this long

Someone made a "2 nukes weren't enough" comment that got deleted by another Bureaucrat user

[–] Blockocheese@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago

I think pup's cute but I get why other wouldn't enjoy it

[–] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 15 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Realtalk, I think the account gimmick is annoying, but since I'm not one to piss in other people's Cheerios, I just blocked it and moved on.

[–] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

i blocked it, and the comm, but i still saw this meta post

blocking isn't a panacea

Well yeah it won't work if people are complaining about someone they can block and therefore showing the person to others who have blocked them

[–] Indifference_Engine@hexbear.net 11 points 3 days ago

I've always been more of an armoire fan myself

[–] Josephine_Spiro@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The bit was funny for a while, now its mildly funny to me. Its slightly above beanis posting IMO (no shade to beanis posting)

[–] OgdenTO@hexbear.net 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Incorrect. Look how cool beanis is:

beanis

[–] Josephine_Spiro@hexbear.net 8 points 2 days ago

Fuck, you got me

[–] amberSuperMario@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

i see there was a dog/cat split. personally i would have just embraced chaos and started inter-bureaucracy war and forcibly changed the icon/header/pronouns to cat stuff but maybe this is a more mature solution

Just a matter of time before someone ruins it for the rest of them. It's getting old tho.

[–] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Bureau like Federal Bureau of Investigations, Feds confirmed

[–] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago

Blocked both the account and the comm .

[–] Inui@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I think it'll be better if people start using it for just regular posting if its still controlled by like 20 users and less roleplaying and badposting.

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago

The power of bureaucrat is being able to post both effort and shitposts while participating in multiple mega threads simultaneously. doggirl-smug
