  • How much swearing could you put that you need to ask about that rule?
  • No, I'm saying that there are kids under 13 on this site, so being Pg-13 might not be the safest.
  • I think PG-13 is fine, but anywhere over that's not allowed.
  • I thought you meant PG-13 as in not kid-friendly enough to show kids under 13?
  • I believe that the site is currently PG-13. I was mistaken, I thought you were asking if we could include more swearing/violence than PG-13 currently allows.

    I think I'll be posting a story somewhat soon.


  • It says you have to be "at least 13 years of age or have express parental consent to use, subscribe, and view this website." So there could be younger people, with parental consent. Also, for proof that there are younger people have a look at this comment
  • I know there are younger people. I'm trying to say don't swear, but I think @Usaername's PG-13 rule is viable.

    -Retracted-
  • to clarify: You don't have to make it PG-13 to the letter, but don't include R rated stuff. 

    Someone's torso getting cut open? Sure. A very detailed and graphic description of how their organs spill out into a pile around their feet? that's a little too much.

    Swearing? Sure. Swearing every other line? Maybe turn it down a little.

    I hope this makes sense
  • I'd be interested if I could enter into a bracket based on length.. Maybe we could write our short story and then enter it into a bracket based on length? 
  • I doubt I could whip together more than 5 pages, for example... but i might surprise myself.
  • PG-13 = 1 f-word maximum
  • what's this about a bracket?
  • @Usaername
    My thought was you enter into an "exchange pool" based on your story length... Time wise, I may be able to create a 10-page story... maybe... but reading someone else's 20-page story is 100% out of my range...

    So - my thought was 1-5 page stories go in this group... 6 - 10 page stories in this group 11 - 15 page stories in that group and 16-20 page stories go over there.
  • I'm actually only 13.
  • @jpastor ah i see. I doubt anyone will write that much. Would it really be that hard to read 20 pages though? 

    Also, for what it's worth, given that Tenebris has started up TOC4, i'm not sure i'm going to run the contest at all. I may just shelve it for a later date
