Community and moderator requests and nominations for unmodded communities.

No bulk requests. That means one comm request per post. This is so we can sort out their interest individually.

Community request posts with enough upbears and a volunteer for moderation willing to submit an application will be created during mod drives.

Me and another commenter were talking about it. Hexbear is a druggy place, and there is a lot of discussion about drugs in the comments. Having a straight drug comm would be fun, but there are legal issues that come with that. However, a community more based around harm reduction would have less legal issues. I know quite a bit about drugs, and would be a pretty good person to mod the comm, hence why I'm requesting it. If we ban souring and stash pics, that covers a lot of the legality issues. I think having a place to centralize this discussion would be really good for people on Hexbear struggling with drug use.

If hexbear is going to create a community specifically for drug use, it should also include alcohol/tobacco and all discussion about drugs/alcohol/tobacco should be kept in that one community. The community shouldn’t be anti-drugs in any way but it also shouldn’t be encouraging anyone to shoot ketamine into their eyeballs either. I see what this site does with animal products, maybe you should do that and nsfw it so people have to look for it and not just stumble upon it. Also harm reduction is a terrible name, are you trying to make the leftist equivalent of a 12 step program? Call it drugs. Simple.
