Anyone who is regularly in main chat has come across venting in main before, it can really drag someone’s mood down when all you wanted to do was talk in a lion game. These vents often include incredibly triggering topics, and I’ve seen some that really drag me down. I know of several others that are also made highly uncomfortable by venting in main chat.

To stop this, I suggest that you be able to flag messages and get them taken down if the messages are venting. If someone repeatedly does it, they should get a warning by mods. This would fall under the “ignoring mod requests” rule.

Yes, it’s okay to vent, but it’s better to do it privately rather than in a public chat with people who didn’t consent to being vented to. For example, instead of venting in chat, you could say, “is there anyone I could PM? I wanna vent” or something like that.

Complaining is okay, by venting I mean bringing sensitive IRL topics into main chat.

If no support, please tell me why, I’d like to improve this suggestion as much as I can!



This suggestion has 174 supports and 36 NO supports.

A venting chat wouldn’t be preferable, that’s much more of a discord thing with a ton of chat rooms, not really a LD thing.

mm fair, fair. it was just an idea. XD
i was on the edge with that one. sounds like a good idea but at the same time i can see why not, it would get out of hand real quick, and theres no telling who would do what with what information.

Yeah, Sadly it'd get out of hands pretty easily. Which is sad because it could actually be a good alternative. Sadly, everyone who doesnt want to vent will just avoid the channel an never go in it, which will render is useless because the people venting want to be read & acknowledged!

Yes please. It already seems heavily moderated as is, but I wouldn't mind them taking a step further and banning it altogether. A lot of people are not equipped to hear people vent in what is ultimately a lion pet sim chatroom, and it can easily lead to arguments and advice that may end up doing more harm than good.

I'd rather that people vent in a place that will get them better support and can be more easily moderated than something as big as this site, as well as a place that isn't going to trigger those not prepared to handle vents, especially considering Lioden's large age range.

I think that there's a big distinction between, say, complaining about your cubs or something that is lightly annoying you and venting about your poor circumstances in life.

So banning it in chats, forums and DMS would help regulate it?

No one ever said to ban it in PMs, I explicitly say that’s okay in the post. Banning it in chats and forums would nip the issue in the bud.

As I said in the post, “ For example, instead of venting in chat, you could say, “is there anyone I could PM? I wanna vent” or something like that.”

I'm sorry, but I can't understand why the need to vent on a lion pet sim is so dire. It can, in fact, be very dangerous, since a sizable portion of Lioden's community is minors, and being openly vulnerable on the internet can be unsafe for them for reasons I don't think I should have to voice. Unsafe for everyone, really. There are many professional AND free resources that people can pursue without trying to find an untrained stranger to offload on.

When someone comes into chat and randomly says something triggering you can’t reverse reading it, sure you can just not read it but it doesn’t reverse reading something triggering by mistake.

Wait, we're talking about chat, not the forums? I'm sorry for misunderstanding. I agree that it's not appropriate to vent in the main chat.

My Computer totally cut off the first paragraph and the title Lol and I guess I just didn't notice the other mention.
