So there has been a few questions regarding the rating as to the type of roleplays on this forum. I'm going to have the rating higher than PG. According to zetaboards rules everyone here has to be above age 13, so it's probably good to keep it at PG-13. R... we all know what R is, either through personal experience or watching it somewhere. Let me explain: I'd consider Kitfox's comics PG-13 - the only sketchy stuff there was some nudity, allusions to sex, and language. Some gore too. That's how I want to keep it here. Let me explain:
I have a pretty liberal stance as far as ratings go, but I know everone's is different, and I don't want people here to get uncomfortable with excessive smut, etc. If you have a question about a post, or want to talk about a post before going ahead with it, talk to myself, Kitfox, or Rena about it and we'll discuss it over. |

I agree to me anywhere from PG-13 to R is fine with me. Everyone has a different stance on PG-13 and R ratings. Sometimes for me in experience PG-13 can be just as bad as R, in a movie sense anyways. But I think leaving things to the imagination is more powerful than going into graphic detail. Such as swearing I really don't mind it if it's not in excess =3 |

Though; what if you flex your descriptive muscles, and start dropping some sketchy sounding build-up, to make a reader start thinking you're going way over PG-13; but then throw them off? (I have a particular example if needed XD) |

Honestly, if I see that I will probably vouch to have the post removed, lol. There's nothing bad with it. But it isn't really needed here, no offense. There are much more subtle yet powerful ways to go about showing character intimacy. Personally I like to leave it to the readers imagination. |

But you see; that's the beauty of my post; there really is nothing going on there; the reader is lead to believe it though. Seriously; he's really only popping her back; nothing more. XD I highly doubt I'll use something that semi-inflammatory; I was just tossing that up as an example; and a good LOL XD (Apparently; that entrance post was a huge hit in that RP too; cuz it threw so many people off XD) Besides; I kinda consider throwing bawdy sex scenes into stories as being bad form in writing... I'll be good ^^ |

Oh I know there's nothing going on there. But if you were to do that with sexual themes, I'd probably remove it. It's not that I'm squeemish over it (I mean, who doesn't like sex??!), but we need to keep everyone in mind here. If we're going to remain in compliance with zetaboard rules, we have to make these forums appropriate for 13 and up. Like I said, sex is fine and character intimacy is fine. But there's a good way and a bad way to it. |

(Many pardons for posting in a long-dead topic ) You know... I've been a little bothered by how I might have portrayed that Gaia RP; It got pretty darn cool (though it was mostly just me posting for my own self; trying to get through to a town or something) I've got the rest of it as one tall image file of replies. I was just wondering if anyone wanted me to toss it up for posterity's sake... S & G and all that... (It's totally SFW; the opening post was the only one that was questionable; really.) |
