er... i feel like you're trying too hard to accommodate everyone, which is sort of impossible in a group this large. while i understand warnings for things like incest, gore, vore, sex, rape, racism and other things not usually socially acceptable...

...forcing people to give warnings for every little thing that might make them twitch not only limits the teams' creativity but also just doesn't make this very fun.

i think just a general blanket rule of "give content warnings for heavy or questionable material" will suffice. everyone knows what that means and everyone can easily follow it. realistically we just can't accommodate every teeny, tiny thing for each individual in a group this effing big. or just implement the movie system of rating and have us rate our fanworks as G - NC-17 and then maybe state what to watch out for. plus that could give people a general idea as to what the tone and feel for the fanwork might be thus they'll probably know what to expect.

for example, if you don't like swearing and something is rated R, you probably know to avoid it even if language isn't specifically warned for because the team forgot or something.
