I think hairs are getting a bit split. For a reference point, the way I think about the RPG ratings is that 3 is about the equivalent of NC-17, 2 as R, and 1 as PG-13. That being said, MPAA ratings are a familiar reference point but they are not a direct mapping, and I did outline in more detail here what specifically I would like us to avoid. I am very against a zero tolerance policy in regards to sexual content precisely because I don't want to infringe too much on creative freedom. The situation you described will still be acceptable at WOLF, but the requirement is that it is not done in a way that could be construed OOCly as illegal behavior if a minor is directly involved/engaging. Exploration can still be had without requiring turn-based, graphic descriptions of sexual acts.

Because it is a bit subjective, I prefer to err on the side of too conservative. This isn't a moral judgement. This is risk reduction. The adjusted rating is 3-1-3. I understand that this may not be for everyone, but when it comes to protecting members of this community as well as my IRL assets, I'm drawing as hard of a boundary as I can, while still giving as much creative control to the writers here as I can. It's a balancing act.
