Ratings and the Censorship Pandas
Amber Panyko created the Censorship Pandas as an attractive way to reveal the rating of a site. A site such as mine has content covering a large spectrum, so I used them to rate all my stories. I mentioned this to Amber when I met her in Pittsburgh at Anthrocon 2006; she was delighted to discover this heavy use of the pandas.
| Rating | Description | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
 |
Not Rated | No rating has yet been decided. Reader Beware. |
 |
General | Nothing to worry about. No offensive content at all. Just purely informational or cuddly-wuddly stuff. |
 |
Parental Guidance | A little more serious, maybe a fistfight or two, more serious overtones. |
 |
14 and over | A LOT more serious, more mature themes. These can mean emotional, violence, suggestive themes, and so on. For readers in their teens. |
 |
Mature Readers | Graphic violence, disturbing scenes, suggestive or sexual situations. Mature readers only. |
