-It’s important to remember that we are not your doctors/therapists/emotional support group/financial advisors. While we adore all of you, and we can sympathize with struggles, we need people to stop treating the server as a means of support. If you’re having a crisis, there are other communities and servers out there for you, as well as resources for each of your individual areas - and we are not professionals in that area and should not be treated as such.+Limitations on discussions of sensitive topics 
 +As moderators, we want to do out best to protect the members of our community on this server. We sympathise with the struggles faced, particularly by members who are part of one or more disadvantaged groups. However, we are not equipped to provide therapy or proper mental health support, and we need to foster a community who are mindful that what they say may have inadvertent effects on others. As such, we do not allow discussions which could be reasonably expected to be a potential trigger for survivors. This includes, but is not limited to: 
 +  * Discussions of real world bigotry 
 +  * Discussions of real world abuse and violence 
 +  * Detailed discussion of mental health issues, particularly severe symptoms (acknowledgement of having a condition is acceptable, as are other broader discussions, but we do not permit messages which veer into detailed descriptions of severe symptoms or crises) 
 +We appreciate that sometimes normal discussions can veer close to these, and the line cannot always be clear, so we ask that members be mindful, and please respect a mod's decision if they feel the topic has gone too far. 
 +If you feel you have been affected by a topic such as the above being discussed in the server, please raise a ticket with us, as we would like to understand the needs of our community. 
 +If you yourself are in crisis or need to vent/discuss something related to these types of topics, we ask that you please utilise another server or resource who are equipped for it. If you are strongly struggling and cannot find another resource, please raise a mod ticket and we will do what we can to help find appropriate support and resources.
