Just a gentle reminder friends to please use the trigger icon next to the post if you think it may trigger other people. A trigger icon generally needs to be used for posts that may induce strong feelings specifically that cause great upset. Obviously we can't all know one anothers triggers but it is common sense to use the trigger icon for any posts regarding sexual abuse, or graphic abuse of any sort.

Thanks.

Good reminder Pegasus! I think most people either just forget to change the icon (and I mean MOST members here don't ever change the icon from the yellow book Trigger icon ) or, they don't even think that it might be a trigger to someone.

It's something they have to learn, yah? (And reminding them helps them learn.)
