Mod Post: Some Additional Rules

As delighted as your mod is with how [community profile] give_satisfaction is going, there are some topics that simply are not in our purview. While dark and disturbing material is fine, some recent prompts have crossed the line.

This prompt, for instance: (trigger warning : suicide) Bertie tries to kill himself but fails, it's Jeeves that found and stopped him. H/C angst.
(I know pretty dark sorry)


[community profile] give_satisfaction  is not the place for this prompt. If they are to be taken seriously, and might be triggering, then suicide, rape, murder and excessive violence are not acceptable for prompts. Part of the fun of a kink meme community is that it is a safe space.

Please take those prompts to[community profile] indeedsir , for their plot bunny farms. As far as I know, prompts can also be made there anonymously.

Thanks.


ETA: In light of the discussion there has been a poll posted. Please vote and comment!

I was the prompt OP, and I agree with everything Eriptah just said, point 3 is pretty relevant for me, I have struggled with those urges in the past and frankly that's why I had posted it here, reading fics that deal with that where a character is rescued have helped me before, I was feeling down yesterday and that's why I had posted that prompt (not suicidal atm don't worry, I've been better for a few months now)
But yeah getting told suddenly that's not appropriate? It's not a nice feeling. :(
I get that it can be triggering to some which is why I had started my prompt with the trigger clearly written.

Thank you for adding this. I think it's an important point. A thing that is triggering for one person can be even therapeutic for another person.
I'm the prompter of the bad guys made them do it. I like reading dark fics involving violence and characters suffering and I know that many people would call it sick but it's not that I enjoy violence or get turned on by the characters suffering. For me it's about survival. Reading about characters surviving the most terrible and hopeless situations gives me hope and helps me cope with things that have happened to me. And it helps me like nothing else.
