There's been some discussion lately on whether an experience should be posted to BME if it includes or even advocates “bad ideas” — drug use combined with body modification, fake IDs, questionable aftercare, or even low-end studios. Here's the “offical word” on that question:
The purpose of the experience part of BME is to document this subculture. It's not there to make judgement calls or specifically to educate (although if an experience blatantly lies in a way that'll hurt people it shouldn't be posted without a clarification); it's literally there to record history. There are other sections of BME that have an educational role.
Anyway, I don't know if it helps illustrate “bad ideas” documented as an experience, but I've just submitted one of my own stories to the experience engine, talking about some very questionable tattoo decisions I made both in terms of safety and quality. If you're interested in doing some reviewing, it's the one titled “Three layers: Do as I say, not as I do”.
