At one time, the purpose of this group was to discuss multiplicity in an uncensored format similar to the old darkpersonalities list (http://www.topica.com/lists/darkpersonalities), which is still active over at topica.
As such, trauma-based multiples and the like were welcome, but the community itself did not exist solely as a support group for them.
Since the assistant manager added words like "abuse survivors" and "dysfunctionality" to the interest list, the community has been moving in that direction, as people end up here having done interest searches on those topics.
This is the second time that a member has referred to this community as being based on traumatic experience. As Shiu points out, the name of the community needs to be changed if the majority of community members want for it to become a place specifically for abuse-origin multiples.
