Okay, I think it’s unanimous enough now that we will have to remove certain topics (like self harm, ED, r*pe, gore). I might need to set up thread reporting in order to manage it effectively. I will also need to add a notice on the new thread page informing people. I’ll work on this when I get a chance (probably this weekend).

@Chewerz: oh okay thank you!

so does this mean I can't talk about DID? I'll delete all my threads if that's the case. I wanna keep everyone happy

i just commented this on a venting post i feel it should be put here too, even though it mostly repeats everything that's already been said.

(not directed at anyone specifically, just the website/recent posts in general)

tw: slight mention of ed and sh

i'm honestly really concerned and frankly tired of all the sh/ed posts i've been seeing lately. if someone is coming to this website for advice, it should be something more light like friends or school, not heavy topics. this is not the appropriate place for it, nor does it have the appropriate people to help. most of the active users (that i've seen at least) are young. many of them being younger than myself. it's too easy to share or be given the wrong information whether it was intentional or not. you have no idea who is on the other side of that screen and they may or may not have the best intentions for you in mind. even if a post or comment you make never tells anyone to do something, kids are young and impressionable. it's too easy for someone to try something harmful because they think it's "cool" or anything like that.

this website is supposed to be fun and lighthearted. myself and so many others want to have a good time without worries of the real world. especially now i have so many worried in my real life, and i don't want to be brought down online too. in the past i never came across these kinds of posts so they were easy for me to ignore. but a lot of days now half of the active threads have some kind of tw in the title. even if the post doesn't give anyone ideas or something like i mentioned in the first paragraph is still weighs me down. it is not my job or anyone else's website to help you, or to be more blunt even listen to you. we are not therapists. i understand it's nice to vent but there are so many other resources online if you are unable to do so irl. myself and others cannot go about our days offering inaccurate advice and worrying "are they safe" and similar thoughts.

I AGREE. i know its good to vent and all but since i see stuff abt s/h everywhere now i am also starting to see younger kids think mental illness and s/h are "asthetics" or "cool"
