User blog comment:ShawnCognitionCP/Warnings on Creepypastas: Why I Despise Them/@comment-25073641-20150227124859

LOL, can't help myself from commenting here, since this is a very serious issue. Getting to the serious side, let me state my opinions.

I both agree and disagree to remove this tag. You know why? It's because of reasons. So, I will be on the gray side.

Why I agree? - As you already explained, this stops the paranoia, dread, shock, and fear from flooding the readers' mind. When they see the flag, they will expect to see something offensive, which is not good; the twist must be kept obscured until the reader finds it him/herself. Most of all, it looks rude and uneducated. What's the purpose of adding scary elements if you will just flag it TRIGERRING or OFFENSIVE. That beats the goal of the story.

Why I disagree? - Not everyone on this site is mature and capable of handling strong and violent language. Like me, I'm just 14 years old (although I can handle such language). That's why I try avoiding NSFW stories as much as I could. Maybe even younger. There are readers out there, with or without CP accounts, within the age of 10 to 13, or myabe even younger. With these flags, they will be aware they're going to read a pasta that is inappopriate for their age, thus stopping them from proceeding.

There are much more, but these are the majority of my reasons. I hope you find these helpful.
