Question for the community.

I think it mainly depends on the intent, and every user should know that sharing screenshots publicly for the purpose of entertainment is probably not a good idea.
I can understand people sharing their own screenshots, or sharing other people's screenshots about methods for the purpose of distributing information, and I think it is alright in this aspect, but when done to make fun of any people involved, it should be an instant ban because the person that shared it knew exactly what they were doing. They aren't here to CTB or to understand pro-choice viewpoints to life better, they are only here to make fun of those that take the forum seriously, and so these people don't deserve to be on the forum.

Can't you see everything but the Sanctuary without a log-in? If so, this rule seems a bit pointless, outside the restricted forum(s).

No not every forum is available to the public, the ones who ss the restricted should be banned no problem. Once you make yourself part of the community, you should definitely be banned since you took the time to get into those restricted forums and leak out private posts

I’m a new member to take this with a grain of salt, but I think the content with the attached screenshots should be assessed and if mocking or any kind of negative connotation should warrant a ban. Not only does it ruin the screen of safety this website gives (at least to me) but it’s incredibly rude and hypocritical to come into a website (because I’m assuming you need it too) and making fun of people struggling or at their worst. It can also risk someone being found god forbid, I’ve seen a few members give some specific information (no personal details) and putting that on a general platform a lot of people know about or can access can increase chances of being found out or even targeted by others online. Imagine finding a thread on another website of you being made fun of because you’re at the worst you’ve ever been, for some it may be the last straw.

I think the only restricted forums are The Sanctuary and The Partners Megathread. But I could be wrong.

Why is suicide considered such a shameful topic? Why can it not be discussed openly without it being considered wrong? Why is it wrong to consider suicide if one has a degenerative illness that has robbed a person of their life? Why why why …

Depending on the content and its ability to negatively impact users or the community. Temporary ban for screenshots of content that don't have the potential for causing harm. Permanent ban for everything else.

The Suggestions thread is also restricted I think.
