Classifed for these writings are based on the ratings of the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification), which is really no different from the familiar MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America):
![]() UNIVERSAL | The material is suitable for all ages, especially for very young children. MPAA equivalent rating of G. | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() UNIVERSAL | The material is suitable for all ages. MPAA equivalent rating of G. |
![]() PARENTAL GUIDANCE | The material is admitted for all ages, but Parental Guidance is recommended. By usual policy, PG should not disturb a child of about 8 years of age or older, but may have moments of mild violence and slight inuendo that might be frightening or be unfitting for very young children. MPAA equivalent rating of PG. |
---|---|
![]() 12 | The material is unsuitable for an audience younger than 12. It may have moments of mild violence and mild profanity. MPAA equivalent rating of PG-13. |
![]() 15 | The material is unsuitable for an audience younger than 15. It may have a fairly adult theme or contain mature content, like language and violence, while not being particularly graphic, are unsuitable for younger teenage audiences. MPAA equivalent rating of PG-13. |
![]() 18 | The material is suitable for adults -- those whom have reached the age of 18 or over. It has an adult theme and contains highly graphic scenes of sex, gore, violence, and profanity. It may also contain some very explicit language. MPAA equivalent rating of R. |
Preferably, writings with the 18 rating will be and should be of a severe nature and "done with a very good stylisation"; if not, it they will not be allowed on this site. Subjects of rape, sex, homosexuality, occultism, strong profanity, strong graphic violence and gore are acceptable, because I really have nothing against all of them, if they apply to all the above -- and, hopefully, they apply logically to the plot of pastiche. However, I do not believe in slash for the sake of it. Slash, henti, yaoi and yuri are intolerable because it goes against this site's pastiche philosophy of "keeping in character". On unique occassions, there may be exceptions to these rules, but that is very rare.
Restricted R18 rating -- the MPAA equivalent rating of NC-17 -- is not admitted on any terms whatsoever.
