Unhealthy trends on peertrainer

I have left 2 groups now due to members posting unhealthy goals/practices. I really like some of my groups/teams because of the support, connection, and good ideas. I'm struggling with whether or not peertrainer is shifting to be a site that promotes unhealthy weight loss and the idealization/glamorization of disordered eating. Is there any way for peertrainer to intervene with people who log unhealthy behaviors? I have a great deal of experience with eating disorders and have concern that if someone were to die from anorexia, that her parent or partner could look towards peertrainer as a responsible party. There must be some liability involved, despite any disclaimers.
Is anyone else frustrated with people posting about not eating, restricting calories beyond healthy limits, over exercising, binging/purging?
