Hi Aunt Mel,
Thanks for the offer of the babblemail of examples of possibles triggers, I am aware of what a trigger is...thanks for the suggestion though :-)
Like you say there are serveral things that most people would agree are triggers...like major triggers for want of a better word. I was thinking along the lines of the more minor triggers, (for want of a beter word again if you get what I mean) those ones some people who may diagree on whether they would be a trigger or not. Therefore if you didn't put the word 'trigger' in the subject title, you could get a PBC, in theory. Basically I would of thought you'd need specific guldlines for what is a trigger in the FAQ's as so then to know when to add the word trigger and to avoid confusion if and when a PBC was issued because you didn't type the word 'trigger'..and that would be uncivil....but on the other hand the actual message you wrote would not be considered uncivil, its only uncivil becasue you did have the word trigger, you understand what I mean?
To the several things that most people would agree are trigger, maybe there is also a grey area, certain subjects are not clear with black and white, as to what is a trigger and what is not. In that grey area there could be serveral things which people would possiibly disagree on whether they are triggers?...or maybe i'm wrong. If you had clear guildlines though, i guess thats where that grey area could be cleared up, if the trigger rule was/is to come into play.
Kind regards
Nick
