Help question about a rule

Can you explain this to me please?

I don't quite understand what "triggering" is.

Triggering material without the use of the Trigger Icon (to be added)

Thank you!

things that can be emotional triggering.

the trigger icon is used more in the mental health forums, but should be used if a post could be upsetting. cause members an emotional upset.

does that make sense?

the is for political.

Yes thank you very much!

It's a whole new world and I'm trying to get the lay of the land so to speak .

I had a great teacher who often made the point that the only stupid question was the one you didn't ask .

So I figured I'd ask .

Ckepi, if you hadn't beat me to it that was MY question, but I would like some clarification please....

What kinds of things would this include on the emotional part? Talking about a specific crime, talking about abuse of any kind, talking about a specific death, - is this what you mean? Are there more?

Thanks...I just don't want to do the wrong thing in here! I'm so tickled to be here!

It's kind of for anything that might make people feel a bit stressed or upset -
death, violence, abuse that sort of thing

the Trigger Icon is just a warning sign that a possibly sensitive subject is being posted -- and might be upsetting
thanks for asking
