In an ideal world, yes all of these things should have warnings. This is not an ideal world, however, so it's the responsibility of the community to help protect its own members and it's the responsibility of the site to make sure that happens.

Support, but it'd be really tricky considering computers can't really do that effectively themselves and going through each single link and ammending as it's being posted would take aaaages

I'm also not sure how I feel about this. As Lioden is fairly realistic, seeing the blood/gore of the carcasses should be assumed. Nature itself isn't pretty, and with predators like lions, it's usually more blood then not. As far as putting warnings on EVERYTHING with blood/gore - I don't think it's realistic, nor would it be something you'd find in an idea l world. In an ideal world, if that sort of thing triggers you, you wouldn't open yourself to it in a realistic, predator based website.

If, while you're participating in game itself, and avoiding the forums, you get triggered by encounters/items/etc, then that's because you decided to make yourself available for the potential triggers of a predator based website. Especially since we can kill our own lions in a way of freeing up space.

As far as the forums themselves go, I think that anything that would actually need a trigger warning would be breaking the general rules so... No support. Seems a little redundant on a site that is vaguely violent/bloody on its own.

No warning is needed for Lioden things. Lioden is a 16+ games, it's clear on it's gore content, and if you don't want to see any gore content, well, I guess you should rather play another game. Like, you wouldn't buy a game rated PEGI 18 blood+violence if you don't want to see violence. You would play another game instead.

As for links in chat, well, if the members are posting the links in the only aim to trick other people, sure it's really not nice. But if it goes along with the conversation, then it's just your choice to click on it, as you know what you may find. People may say by their own if it does contain gore indeed, but I don't think this should be a strict rule, as, by registering on Lioden, you're already accepting to see gore content.

As long as it's "correct" things, like, no eviscerated human kid or that kind of "hard" thing that wouldn't be legal anyway, I think there should not be any problem with gore things on a website like Lioden.

Im in the middle of a stressful move atm but I'll make a post addressing all your points soon! Thank you everyone for your input x

[ FYI, I didn't read all of the posts above and only skimmed them, but I saw pretty much the same thing being said so. :U ]

Just because there is blood and gore on Lioden doesn't mean the entire community is okay with it. The poaching event is probably a good example since there were a lot of complaints about the elephant with its face hacked off; even I found that a bit disturbing, and I'm not very squeamish about blood and cartoon gore (I'm 19 btw since being 16+ somehow means you need to be more hardened about troubling images apparently lmao).

Anyways. I don't know why you guys are bringing up Lioden's cartoon violence, blood, and gore when this suggestion is about linking to possible off-site images in chat that can potentially be triggering and upsetting to the users of the game (and not just the younger ones, mind you). This suggestion is also saying users should be giving warnings in case the images, videos, etc. aren't cartoonish. There's a big difference in seeing artwork of gore and real life gore.

People are sensitive to topics that are sensitive in nature and that's not a bad thing. I don't think it's much of an inconvenience for anyone if they were to give a warning for things that can be distressing and triggering. There's not really a down side to it.

Support.

Thank you Koga.

While it would be nice to have warnings for the gore/violence of the game art, this suggestion is specifically for offsite images linked in the forums and chat by users.

Again I'll be online properly soon to address all the other points but I want everyone to be aware of the actual purpose of this suggestion.

As I said, I understand that you don't want to see gore offsite images, and it would be respect to warn about them. But if you really can't see blood and gore, you should rather quit Lioden anyway, and play a game that is good for every kind of public. Because we just can't remove every bloody thing of Lioden.

Um, okay?? The suggestion is not talking about removing or providing trigger warnings for the gore and blood in Lioden's gameplay, but about players giving some sort of heads-up for off-site links in chat and forums. I don't really understand how you're getting those two things mixed up.

This is Koga on my second account, btw.

@Tea:
I think the reason people bring it up is that Lioden itself has a lot of gore, o you do have to have some kind of gut to take it. And if you can take it, then you can take the gore and blood that people linking contain.

Then again, I believe that there should be some kind of limit of how much blood and gore one can link. I can tell that the drawn gore is not quite the same as real gore and I myself would feel sick and affected by it if one shows me a real bloody corpse or a heavy wound.

Drawn blood is not the same as real blood.

Sisko is going on about ONE IMAGE that was posted in chat and was, in fact, relevant to the conversation at hand. It had a minor bit of cartoon gore but nothing compared to what we see in the game itself regarding the hunts and such. It wasn't excessive. It wasn't real life or an actual person. To be honest, it was a Pokemon reference. I refuse to support this for the same reason many have posted. This is a 16+ website. If you can't handle it then there are many other games out there for you.
