Yea, but don't we have to read GROSS thread titles without any choice too? I find it more offensive to be disgusted by someone who just feels like being gross than a headline from the newspaper  But I don't ask that people not post the stuff that turns my stomach, I simply scroll past it. Again, just saying...
Maybe there's should be an actual NEWS forum that doesn't relate to P, I dunno... . [Edited 3/15/07 20:05pm]  there are really, truly disgusting thread titles often enough here at the ORG so that imo this thread does not really stand out. | |

AsylumUtopia said: ZombieKitten said: it's not about banning, it's about showing a little sensitivity. I am not asking for the thread to be pulled, but maybe presented more in a way that lets us choose whether or not we want to read about this.  How will you know you don't want to read about it if the thread title doesn't tell you what it's about. If the title is ambiguous you might click on it anyway just to find out what it's about, so the result is the same really. On the news they say "viewers may find some scenes distressing." These threads basically have sensationalist thread titles, Ive seen a multitude of them. Nobody is saying ban them or censor them, just show some tact in the title. | |

I meant tact only in relation to these types of threads, (news stories) We have a NSFW warning for nudity etc but when it comes to things like this theres nothing in place to warn readers. I dont know its just a thought... ... [Edited 3/16/07 10:53am] | |

I think people need to be reminded that things like this happen. Hug your child and/or appreciate your partner/husband/wife today. 'Cause there is some crazy stuff going on out there.

I've come to accept that the world is full of people who are truly mentally disturbed. You watch the news for only 30 minutes and it's the same story after the next. It's almost like I'm numb to it now. Like some have stated maybe putting news stories in P&R would be a medium. I don't think it would be right to get rid of them all together. You're not fooling yourself by pretending that these things don't exist. Stories like this just help me keep my guard up more.  looking for you in the woods tonight Switch FC SW-2874-2863-4789 (Rum&Coke) | |

i do have to wonder what people think about P&R posters - that we're hard ass pricks who aren't moved by stories like these? 
give Luv a break, she was as much in shock about this story as anybody, i'm sure. maybe she'll consider changing the title - but we all know that doesn't change how horrible the story itself is. | |

The name of this forum is "General Discussion" so it fits here. If it's ruining the party maybe we should rename this forum "silly shit" & rename P&R "serious shit", otherwise it doesn't make any sense to post this in P&R

I can't stop these stories from being reported....and I'd rather be aware of murderers than not. I don't wanna lose touch with reality even if it means knowing about horrendous things. I don't think I'm as naive of a person because of news reportings. looking for you in the woods tonight Switch FC SW-2874-2863-4789 (Rum&Coke) | |
