FYI: For anyone who might not know, the trigger icon is located below the text box of a new post, in the section "post icons", and it looks like this one on this post.

Thanks Echoes - it really is so important - rather 'over-use' the trigger icon, than risk someone being triggered.
It's terribly painful

I think we've had thread here before about triggers...what maybe triggering for one person isn't for another...is the trigger icon a cover for what others legitimately have strong feelings about? i remember some time ago a child molestor wanting help for his issues...eventually it was decided this wasn't the best place for him...if he'd used a trigger icon would that have helped him/us? There are somethings people need to speak out about and respond too..a trigger icon should never be used for unaccepable behaviour when others are being harmed by it..should it?

Post was a response to someone who mentioned in their post that they didn't know what the trigger icon was...
