Trigger Warnings and When to Use Them - Orion - 09-06-2021

Here on Beasts of Beyond, we want everyone to feel comfortable when consuming content, along with being able to avoid literature that may cause unease. Due to this, trigger warnings are advised to be used during several situations. There are a few guidelines when doing so.

1. Trigger warnings should be at the top/in the first line of each post or above the part where the content is mentioned.
2. Please state the reason for the trigger warning
3. You are more than welcome to put triggering content within a spoiler.
4. A trigger warning in the signature or a profile DOES NOT count
5. Warnings should be used in all threads, whether active/private roleplay or a biography
6. Don't know when to? Ask staff, but when in doubt, it's best to just in case!
7. Topics that require trigger warnings are:
a. Sexual assault/misconduct, including rape/incest
b. Abuse (mental, physical, child, sexual, verbal, etc)
c. Self-harm
d. Suicide
e. Explicit depictions of gore/death
f. Drug usage
g. Major mentions of mental illness

These rules and required TWs are subject to change. Please contact staff with any potential additions or concerns. Thank you.
