Suggest: Warnings for folders

Edit (2021): This thread is 3 years old and I completely forgot I posted it in the first place, haha. I just want to make it clear that I would personally no longer need this feature (so no need to suggest me workarounds or remind me to put individual warnings on characters who need them, I already do so). I'm only keeping this thread up for people who would find a use for such a feature. Thank you for your understanding, have a nice day!

Pretty much what it says on the tin, as always.

Right now we can put custom warnings on both individual characters and our own accounts, and that's cool... But what if only some of our folders and characters in them would require warnings? A global ~~warming~~ warning would be too much in my opinion, and putting a separate warning for each character could be tedious, and even feel out of place in some conditions.

My suggestion is to allow us to put warnings on folders, too! Just like the profile warnings, these would appear in both the folder itself, and the characters within it if that the first thing an user see. (In forum games for instance) Once they accepted to continue, they won't see any warnings on the characters of the folder (unless if they have a specific one).

Personally, I would really to see that added since some of my characters deal with topics that some see as sensitive (but are not inherently NSFW afaik), but these characters usually are in specific folders, not across my whole account. Putting a global, profile warning would feel to much for me since basically the other half of my account is pretty safe and rather innocent, and putting a specific warning on each character from my two "sensitive folders" would be tedious both for me and the people browsing my account. I used my own situation as an example here, but I think it could apply to a lot of other cases too, for instance if you have a specific folder for NSFW characters, or a folder for a story with potentially triggering material.

Thanks for reading! I hope you'll like and consider this suggestion! (:

+1, this sounds like it would be very useful to some people!

+1 I agree on this!!

A workaround temporarily though would be to go to edit the folder itself, and write a big red warning as the Folder description, and then place a large image, or many enters, you know? Stretch the page down and then save it.
Then, when someone views that folder, all they will see is like, a bunch of white and;
