Mandatory trigger warnings when you post an LP of a game with violent, offensive or disturbing content. I had to add a bunch of warnings to the lovely GTA thread I dumped on the forum when it opened, which felt just a tiny bit overkill. (edit: to clarify, this was not a big deal at all, my reaction was basically "see the rule, shrug and add some generic warning")

Look some people just don't know what they could be getting into in a GTA game. Someone could fall into a catastrophic moral crisis and that'd be on you, buster.

well her strategy has been to paint this place as an alt-right hellhole that cyber-opresses all minority posters and also retweeted rumors that lowtax is a rapist before deleting them, so basically if you want to read someone else play a video game you MUST get it from her forum

which I personally think is a very wrong and insane thing to do, but even in the current lp forum when I mentioned that she had tried to paint the Great Race Space as a place they were forcing black posters to post and no where else, they thought that was actually accurate... while still posting here.

It's sort of weird to think about the varying draws this place has had over the years. If you're an 00 you probably like Quake, if you're an 04 you probably like porn, if you're an 05 you probably like p-p-p-powerbooks, and if you're an '11 you either like watching video games or maoist third worldism.

The trigger warning FAQ is entitled "Trigger Discipline," which, ironically, is a bit insensitive. Also, the husband-and-wife LP duo that quit SA because of the change of the Stupid Newbie avatar ended up going to her forum. They were in the middle of a LP of the Mario Party series, which I was watching when they ragequit.

Voidburger continues to paint SA as an alt-right hellhole and established the LP Zone as a counterweight to our perceived political wrongs, but Psychedelic Eyeball couldn't give less of a poo poo and just plays stuff on Twitch now. The Lowtax incident was just something he did, and he moved on.

It's not that mental healthcare is wrong, it's the underlying assumption that if you're posting on LP Zone, you're as much of a headcase as everyone else there. Also, my health is kinda none of your business.

Why would the advice of "seek professional help" be wrong if it came from there?

We're posting on Something Awful, so this seems like a textbook glass house scenario.

I honestly have no problem with trigger warnings in general and adding one to my thread wasn't a big deal, I just figured anyone reading a gaming forum wouldn't need a warning to know to stay away from GTA if they're sensitive to the game's content.

Eh, GTA is a p old franchise at this point. I could see not knowing of it if you weren't a tween in the early 2000s.
