[RESOLVED] Rating ("General Audience" on "Mature" submission/s)

[Silver R. Wolfe]

This submission (http://furaffinity.net/view/104436/) needs to be changed to mature.**(Definitely not adult though.)

Exposed nipples do count as mature right?

Yep, I fixed it. >^.=.^<

Thanks, found a whole gallery by DarkWolfe (http://furaffinity.net/user/darkwolfe/) that has quite a few mis-labeled submissions. (A great deal of mis-labeled ones...)

On a quick glance through, my count was four (possibly three that would be more suitable to mature and one to adult). What about you, SW?
(Links please, to compare notes ;))

I'll drop them a PM to discuss. Good guy, really. :)

p.s. Some of those are likely to be "border-line" decisions, anyhow, and back to that split on what "General Audience" means to different people.

Any problems with this jagkitty, for instance?

Those are the ones I found.

When it's a humanoid character, or an animated character I think the rules are slighty different.

That leopard picture is fine, because well it's just how it is and it's a photograph. It's an example of a work-safe picture.

However, the things I listed are not. Even though in the male ones, there is no erect penis (ha, I said penis. :D), it should at least be marked mature for including the sheath and testicles (hehe, testicles...).

I dunno why so many people goof up on this rating system, it's right there on the submissions upload page. Yet more than twice I've seen an "oops! How do I change that?"

Because, depending on your OS/Browser/Screen resolution, that layout of the site is broken and fairly confusing to the eye, thus causing the submitter to (perhaps unconsciously) ignore it:

OSX.3/Safari/1024x768

Maybe a solution would be for there to be no default, thus forcing the user to make a choice?
Perhaps having the default be set to Mature instead?
No harm, no foul if it's labeled above it's intended rating, but there can be repercussions if it's rated below, yes?

A 'no default' solution seems best to me.

That sounds like a good idea. How about a no default, but in order to submit your art or whatever, you get taken to another screen, where the labels are and you have to pick one before it will be taken. Plus have a little discription explaning each label. Sound like a good idea?

I dunno about another screen.
You start doing that and you'll end up with it being a hassle to submit anything.

I like the idea of keeping it fairly streamlined.
Perhaps rather than another screen the G/A/M ratings layout could be changed so that it's three rows of one column each rather than one row with three columns?
There'd be less chance of it being 'broken' by varying display setting/ Browsers requirement?

I'm talking out of me @$$ here as I have zero clue as to how all this stuff (layout/coding) works.

A redirect to another page would be too much in my oppinion, since it doesn't serve some significant reason. I think it would be suffice to simply move the rating selection to a separate paragraph, and add the description there. Yeah, the description is a good idea... It would sign the death warrent for all those 'i didn't know that!' reasons, hehe :P
Working on it to suggest a possible inplementation... Done. Is this OK? (Thank you, Swampwulf for the rating description ^^)

That looks really good yak. I think that'll work. I still think that it sould be none checked and they have to pick one before they can submit, so that it makes them think of what there art is labeled. I know that some people do it because they want to get there art up faster or are really busy, but then think off how many reports the admins don't have to look at for mislabled art. That'll get them down and they have more time to work on bugs and other things.

Actually, one thing that I noticed is that sometimes if you edit a submission, all the dropdowns revert to the standard options. I've edited text, hit submit, and then realized my previously M-rated submission wasn't anymore and had to change it. some people may not notice if that happens.
