Ah, that's understandable. Different issue entirely, then. Apart from FFN (several years ago, I don't know what they do now), I have yet to participate in any kind of fic-based forum, community, or website that didn't require at least some form of warnings (with the grand total of one exception, a minor kinkmeme that was created explicitly to counter the fandom's main kinkmeme and actively requested users to NOT use warnings of any kind).

Most warnings wank I've seen is not over whether or not to use warnings at all (pretty much everyone agrees we should), but what kind of warnings to use, what to warn for, and how far/how extensive those warnings should go, and what words you should use depending on what you are warning for.

But yeah, if I'm going to a bakesale or something where most things are non-commercial and/or home-baked, and thus may have potentially dangerous ingredients for me with no labels, I'll stop and ask about it. If I'm going somewhere with no warnings, I'll either go into every fic knowing that at any moment I'll have to spontaneously back out because it has one of my trigger warnings or I'll just not read something without asking someone about it first. :)

FFN is one of the places I was thinking of - they require ratings but not specific content warnings. It's the author's choice if they want to give any sort of warning beyond the rating and the fic genre. Some authors do take the extra step and give warnings, some don't. Authors who don't should be demonized because it's not one of the requirements for posting on FFN. Likewise, anyone who reads fic there needs to do so with the knowledge that there might be upsetting or triggery content that isn't warned for.

But I've seen people rage at and bash authors for choosing not to use warnings even though they're fully within their rights not to do so. That's when it crosses the line over into being entitled.
