um why is Lucifer m banned

[Almond]

He was banned for the posts about "Ending it". Ill lower the ban but users beware that this isn't a therapists office.

@Maribitt While i do understand these posts are triggering for some, i disagree with being banned for them. BDNS is all some of us have, we can't go to therapy or our familes/loved ones might not be as helpful as they should be

When people make these posts, i feel bad for them for the reason they're resorting to BDNS for mental and emotional help. People would go elsewhere if they could but as it stands, i don't think they do. I would also like to ask if he was issued a warning before hand? I don't see a rule that prevents posts regarding suicidal ideation or self help

i think everybody has access to help in that resort. i dont think that bdns should be a last resort, we had issues in the past of people faking S-H for clout and attention to the point where we had to add it to general rules lol, if somebody has issues, reach out to friends, family, even the crisis line (211) is available, but i dont think browsedns forums are the place to receive help, as well as additionally raising stress and possibly triggering people

@dafunkymonke its sadly not possible for everone to find help that easy, not everyone has a caring family, friends or a phone, i understand that its triggering for some ppl and faking such posts is shitty but it didnt seem like they faked it, and theres nothing in the rules that say that such posts (the ones that arent fake) arent allowed

[Alastor]

@poyo I agree

[Lucifer M]

@poyo agreed. and i, myself can't find or afford the therapy or help.

[dafunkymonke]

@poyo Yeah of course, its not always possible to get help as easy, but there is always other ways, even with no phone, school counselors and other officials can always aid. ive been bakeracted many times, government paid therapy is always available,through the proper official way. they pull me out of 5th period every friday for sessions in which i dont pay for. I could absolutely encourage post looking for possible help and ways to seek assistance, but i dont think browse forums are the place to recieve help, regardless of how one might try, i think extremely serious matters like such should be professionally handled, just as a precaution.

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@dafunkymonke ur right, it should always be professionally handled, though some ppl might be too shy to talk with a professional in person or someone who could get u a professional, and its always easier to talk with friends or strangers on the internet, even tho its not the best solution everytime, but i still think that the post wasnt ban worthy imo

[Alastor]

@poyo true

[Almond]

@poyo Welp whether the community likes it or not, posts like this aren't really tolerated. keep it in DMS.
