Support 10000%. Main chat shouldn't be a place to discuss triggering topics. Most people go into main chat not expecting to be hit with conversations like that, it's very easy to see/read something that could be potentially triggering on accident. Main chat is just not a constructive place for something like that. Asking to pm with someone if you need to vent serves as a great alternative!

Support! Main chat isn't a therapist. If you want to ask for a venting partner to talk to in private there's nothing wrong with that. Just leave the details to private messages. Lioden related topics is naturally ok within reason. It's the personal stuff that needs to be careful.

If the mods would do their jobs every now and then this wouldn’t be a problem, but I agree 100%

THANK YOU i feel at least half the time im in chat I see ppl talking about some pretty sensetive topics that really should not be discussed in main,,, don't think a vent chat would be a good idea tho, this is a pet sim not a discord server

I'm a person who's vents in main I live alone in a small village and don't have many friends I come here to feel safe and if my venting effects anyone's triggers I'm sorry 😔 I feel like just asking someone to stop should be enough but if not flagging can help. Maybe they could make a venting chat?

A venting chat would become a cesspit pretty fast, either ignored or filled with drama,

If you really need someone to talk to about a personal issue there's other websites and stuff you can get on. Main chat exists mainly to talk about the game. Not about your personal trigger topics.

Agreed with Lunar.

Although i respect how Life can become a lot, and you may not have people to talk to, that is not an excuse to go in a public chat w/ people who might (and often will) react badly to being asked to stop.

Instead, just ask "Can i pm someone to vent?" And then listing any potential triggers to the person BEFORE sending anything there way isnt only super important but respect.

A lot of people go to chat SPECIFICALLY because they dont feel so good & need to be cheered up... so having people vent in there can end up being very negative experiences for certain chatters.

Venting about something that's happening can literally save people. Not everyone feels comfortable coming to a singular person in a game they don't know if they asking general questions in relation to something then I don't see the issue. I get triggers can be hard I have ptsd myself and do stay out of chat if certain things are brought up if its saving someone's sanity by venting I honestly just ignore it. But I understand and respect how you guys feel and do agree that yes some people can be horrible.

There are other spaces to vent other than lioden, I personally recommend using a discord server w online friends or find some LD a friends and make a server with them, venting in public spaces is never good for anyone but the venter.

A public chat with MINORS in it is NOT a place for venting. Especially since the venting you are talking about that could save people is usually NOT TOPICS MINORS SHOULD BE EXPOSED TO.

I agree that venting is important both in relationships and for overall mental health but lioden is NOT the community for that : As it can endanger people.

YOU READ THAT RIGHT. Venting can endanger people, either it be triggering or not.
I'm gonna go deep into that rn. I was the go-to for venting for 10+ people since the age i was 10 to the age of 15. Its 5 years, 5 years i grew up with people constantly mentioning depression, anxiety, thoughts of SH and many other topics I will NOT be talking about on this platform for very clear reasons.

These situations lead me to being completely numb to many scenarios, made me unable to understand certain social clues. I also cannot regulate my emotions due to the fact I have incredible trouble understanding the way I feel because I was too preocupied with other people's...

Overall Venting in general about serious topics (Ranting about cramps/lioden stuff/being scammed/ect is completely fine, here I am talking about people talking about their mental state and other mental troubles) WILL cause me to react very badly both online and IRL.

And this comes ONLY from MY OWN experiences, people have and will live worse than I did, which could possibly get them to be endangered by venting in chat, ESPECIALLY if triggers are there.

Venting in a main chat is like yelling your vent in a public place, it is not appropriate, people WILL be forced to be exposed to it either they consent to it or not and it is not, a good and respectful thing to do. Better sources exist, either that even be discord server, group chat, or fuck-it, even a whole tiktok or youtube video, you cant just ignore something in a public chat, you will instinctively read words, and it can endanger people. Finding alternatives to venting in a chat is more than easy.

Thank you.
