Thank you for your reply, First, i believe my tone came off rather rude, for that i apologize. Second, you really addressed all of my points and I understand but in the end you have to understand tagging a plot twist or a heart-rending ending like the one in your story is vital to the community and not something that you can NOT tag. The practice that you reference can be relatively harmless but hurtful to the mood if not fully prepared which is what, regrettably, happened to me. I will be sure to check everything (including such disclaimers) so that it doesn't happen again. Sorry if I again came off as rude or sarcastic, I was trying to be concise and not hurtful.
You're welcome I accept your apology, and you did actually tone it down between your first version and the edit, so I would also like to apologize, as my tone responded to the harsher (to me) version, and I did not revise. I do understand what you're saying, and I am genuinely sorry that you got hurt. I think it's wise to begin checking more in depth as you plan to, also. I still feel comfortable with the warnings I've given this story, and I hope it might be some comfort to know that it's getting a sequel which is going to quite undo the harsh ending, another reason I would not change the tags now. This was also part of the reason the ending itself was so harsh and abrupt, so that there would be room to theorize and/or write happier endings, which I've encouraged plenty of people to do, if that helps them. All's quite forgiven, I assure you. I can admit I can be defensive at times, or miss tonal signals, especially in text.
