That's right folks the year is drawing to a close so it's time to rehash last year's bit, nominate, and vote for your 2024 Hexies! These are the Hexbears you think exemplify what it means to be a real Hexbear hexbear-retro

Here's how it works:

  1. Pick from the below categories

  2. Nominate someone for that category by tagging them

  3. If you are nominated respond to the nomination to accept it

  4. Most upbeared accepted nomination in each category wins!

What do you win? The esteem of your fellow Hexbearian comrades of course. What more could you want?

The categories for this year's 2024 Hexie awards are:

  1. Best Effortposter of 2024

  2. Most likely to be called a tankie on a blocked instance

  3. Most comradely Hexbear

This year we have a special bonus category to commemorate some of the new comms we added:

  1. Best bad poster (this is not the worst poster, this is the best poster that is bad at posting)

We got a lot of new posters this year and have a lot of great comrades visiting from federated instances, feel free to participate too! We love all of our great posters, don't we folks?

Alright comrades that's it from me, be sure and do your democratic duty and vote for your 2024 Hexie winners and congrats in advance to the winners of this highly coveted and prestigious award!

And for one small trip down memory lane, here's last year's Hexies! https://hexbear.net/post/1477104

spoilerThis bit was fun last year so I hope folks enjoy doing this bit again this year too, as a bit though

I'd like to nominate this moment where I made an offhand mention of a lib who had their own subreddit for monitoring us and hadn't been active in years, then received a reply from said lib in mere minutes, as the wildest moment of the year. Use the "view moderation history" button to see their comments since they were all removed.

Awards are a type of liberalism

Id like to nominate gay tucker carlson for resuming our past friendship and being nice to me in DMs about personal stuff when they saw id come back to the site after not talking for a long time, also for the best impression of tucker carlson if he was gay. didn't want to @ her bcs it felt awkward.

Ngl im slightly tipsy with friends + family rn posting from the toilet, and the main reason i didnt at them was actually bcss i couldn't work out how to withmy dumb dumb tipsy brain

Does anyone else not learn usernames? There's me, there's that one person with the awful avatar so I've decided I don't like them, there's like 500 names that I recognize but see as essentially interchangeable, and then there's dirt owl who talks about piss.

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

I remember usernames, yeah. Especially the one of the user that called me "GrossMichael".

I'm.pretty bad at them myself. I've got some frequent repliers and some here and there but to.am extent I think it's best to only half pay attention. Things get a bit cliquey otherwise if left unchecked.

That being said I've seen @corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net for most comradery and credit where credit is due. Didn't think of it until others did so, but ya seem to really work hard here and elsewhere and generally seem to be there with a decently wise reply for those in need of one. Or you're just goofy and fun.

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

Aww, that made me feel fuzzy Care-Comrade

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 4 points 6 days ago

Corgis are fuzzy

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 6 points 6 days ago

Yeah, there's a few main people I remember but mostly everything is just a haze

  1. Nominate someone for that category by tagging them

My goodness, I'll have a busy time on award night.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 9 points 6 days ago

@someone@hexbear.net receives all of the nominations actually

[–] QueerCommie@hexbear.net 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)
[–] QueerCommie@hexbear.net 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I accept these nominations.

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

Bit idea: queercommie gets in because of this

[–] QueerCommie@hexbear.net 5 points 6 days ago

To be generous to the other nominees perhaps we may add an award category entitled “all of the awards.”

[–] AutoVomBizMarkee@hexbear.net 6 points 6 days ago

Nominating myself for best lurker who posts some comments every two months who is too afraid to make an actual post myself after being bullied on r/chapotraphouse but in a deserved way because I only made posts when drunk.

[–] President_Obama@hexbear.net 8 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

I nominate @femboy@hexbear.net and @twink * because uhm. Let me be queer

/* I remember they deleted their acc cuz of the volcel bit and I was so dissapointed they took the username to the grave with them

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I'm the best overall poster
