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?

          Everyone I know who is trying to learn a language as an adult uses duolingo, but I think that’s more out of convenience and less because it’s actually the best way to learn.

          The best way is still probably from a native language speaker who has been teaching a class for a while.

        A friend of mine is a Spanish first language speaker and when I visit them the next time I would like to have a rudimentary language skill set, just to be nice and show appreciation to them.

        worked back-of-house

        Does this idiom mean working in areas without customer contact like back office, kitchen, maintenance, IT, technical stuff, labs etc?
