Oh man. Just recently there was some thread about "what's a fic you regretted reading" and I remembered an M/K one I read as a teenager that had rape, murder, necrophilia, and no warnings at all. None! It certainly does put modern debates about warnings in some kinda perspective.
I don't know how much presence this still had when you were reading XF, but while the show was running there was a small but active contingent of Mulder/Krycek/Skinner OT3ers who were clearly heavily inspired by the classic episode where Mulder and a shirtless Skinner beat Krycek up and left him chained to a balcony. The fic, of course, had loads of partner abuse, BDSM, and authors who frequently failed to differentiate between the two. Good times.
