Have long time wonder why AW use a american rating system, that I hardly can
find any facts about on net.
For newbabies from Europe, it must be confusing to understand what "G" or
"PG" means.

I would suggest/wish that AW use the ESRB rating system,
http://www.esrb.org/esrbratings_guide.asp
and add age behind the Code, like this:
C (3+)
E (6+)
T (13+)
M (17+)
A (18+)

This would be alot easier for everyone to understand, no matter where you
come from.

Also easier to gets facts about the rating.

aw should use esrb cuz its a videogame, but the system now works fine too :)
its not the american rating system though just movies :)

G -everyone
PG -Parental guidance
PG-13 -parental guidance and/or age of thirteen
R -Restricted
NC-17 -Adult
X -Pornographic

thats the breakdown pretty much, the ratings are given by content, G is like
Disney films, PG is like comedies for children with some vulgarity, pg-13 is
a little more graphic with maybe some language, or MILD sexual themes. R is
adults because of language, sexuality, nudity, and extreme violence. NC-17
is R to a greater extent with mild pornographic scenes. X is straight out
sex and porn.

[View Quote] Personally I find that there isnt enough proper X rated material in AW...
someone should spend vast quantities of time hunting down the very best
online JPG's and creating a P-100 world in AW full of them. Do as the FHM
does... say its artistic license!

Probably because AW is stationed in the USA and there are certain guidelines
they MUST follow to operate a website like AW without getting into trouble
with American rating laws, etc etc. Penalties could range anywhere from
hefty fines to having to shut AW down completely. ;-"D

nope :) untrue the rating system aw uses is strictly for movies, and the
internet has no laws as stated :) well then again if there is porno it must
be stated prior to, :) 18+ law but other than that and the no child porno
rule, and no hacking etc etc, the internet has no laws, because its NOT
owned by the USA, :)

Just want to put out a loud "w00t!" of support for this. Let's try and keep
it that way as long as we can, eh? I know there are quite a few government
organizations out there which would love to legislate the 'net.

That is all.
