Kids, like who everyone here was four years ago, will not pay attention to a rating. Especially a rating of "Mature." Not only are kids too immature to really care, but there is also reverse psychology involved. The taboo is fascinating, and actually if a kid sees the rating "TV-MA" they'll probably get all curious about what's inside. To be totally frank, I kinda feel like it's being irresponsible to make such content so easily accessible to kids who will probably start flowing in when the reboot takes off fully, and who trickle in now, especially when this wiki was founded so heavily on the crappy "[name] 10"s of kids.

But I do see the value in allowing the rating, to a point - if the right gratuities are disallowed. I guess the problem with kids just depends on whether anyone here really values that. It's hard to really care about it in the face of writing what we want to write. I don't really care that much, but it's still a point to be made. Again, any of them who decide to ignore or not pay attention to the rating and end up reading it will be completely at their own fault for doing so. Yes, it'd be us posting the stuff if we choose to post it, and we'd also post what we'd need to to warn them off. Any choice they make to read it or not is on them. For example, f a child decides to watch an adult movie that the adults left out, yes the adults left it out, but no one other than the child chose for them to watch it.
