Site Policy: Mature Content
I recently opened an Ad for a Black Crusade game and within the first day a question was raised regarding the umm... darker content.
As a game, the adventures are about evil characters so evil things and mature content are only to be expected but because it is 40k, an already dark and evil universe, the "bad" side of things tend to be quite extreme. The issue is that its not just graphic violence, but also occassional sexual themes. Another issue is that the PC's are not what one would consider sane so I imagine the skewed way of thinking might be a problem for the younger site users.
I was informed that the site has a general PG-13 policy but to be true to the game I think I am going to have to exceed that rating.
I have advertised the game as one containing Mature Content but I was curious if that will suffice or if I need to take more extreme measures. Can I run this game with a few conditions from the site? Or should I just abandon the project?
I was thinking once the players were selected I could make it so only those approved may view the content. As a rule, I would not allow any readers.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to view this query and I look forward to your response.
