Thanks for going through last year's vids with an eye for warning and checking them off; this is a very valuable post. As [personal profile] heresluck says, vidders are probably not going to be the best judges of their own work, should they be inclined to warn. A measure of personal responsibility should come into play, if one *is* triggered by things in vids, because even if say, [personal profile] heresluck didn't think her Shakespeare vid was triggering, and so there was no label, but it had to potential to...and someone was? That raises the possibility of lots of other vids out there which might have the same problem.

Now that I think on it: have there been cases of people who've been triggered--not disturbed or hurt, but actually triggered, in a PTSD or physical sort of way? Or has this discussion been theoretical so far?
