Now that the old Hexbear fork has been officially abandoned, this community will be used as a space for meta-discussion on the site itself.

Hey! I sometimes have a hard time parsing tone over text. It seems to me others do as well, since I've seen a bunch of people commenting on the levels of irony on hexbear.

While we're all supportive of tone clarifiers, we don't want to use /s because that would turn this instance into Reddit. I sometimes think that sentiment is silly, but I can see where it's coming from and in general I agree with it.

I would however like to ask that we implement a rule so that the question "is this a bit/are you being sarcastic?" Has to be answered with honesty, if the person asked answers. Like you don't have to answer, but if you do you have to be honest.
