Trigger Warning for Many Eyes?
I've seen many projects (mostly DTAs) where it will say, “TW: MANY EYES ON ONE CHARACTER”. Who is this for, and why do they have it? Also, is it allowed? I've seen rules before that say that certain content cannot be allowed, even with a TW. Does this count?

There’s apparently a phobia for eyes, a lot of eyes is allowed even without a TW, but it might be creepy to someone who has the phobia or people who get freaked out easily

I can't comment on the “is this allowed,” but a tw for many eyes is most likely for people with a discomfort of:
- eye contact,
- spooky elements,
- or cluster of holes (as the several eyes and pupils can resemble something like lotus seeds in a lotus, which are strangely creepy)

Drawings of spiders and darkness and other phobias may not actually trigger because they are not actually with a spider or in the dark while they are seeing multiple eyes on their screen.

It is allowed to issue trigger warnings for certain content in a project, unless the content itself is inappropriate for Scratch. For example, “TW: spiders” is allowed since spiders are not inappropriate, but “TW: gore” sounds like it wouldn't be allowed because gore is generally not appropriate for Scratch.
In particular, “TW: many eyes” sounds like it would be allowed.

Ommetophobia. Something regarding eyes. Also might trigger a trypophobic person (fear of clusters of holes and bumps, RIP trypophobe trying to read braille). Trigger warning based off of phobias are ok.
