I Have a Suggestion for Similar Worlds

Instead of Private Messages could you increase the censorship system so we could post very extreme Adult content and mark it such. Every member would need to approve to access such stories and/or replies.??
Now we CAN post extreme stories for which I thank you. But do not like the objections received, and more especially do not like that youngsters can access them. Of course no censorship can avoid teens if they join with fake ages etc..
I used to get very frustrated in EP rewriting the same things for up to a dozen friends. Took so much time and I lost interest in what I was sharing.

It is a member's own responsibility to set their age and content filters to their preferred values. If someone lies about what they want to see, even a personal assistant couldn't filter the content correctly for them. Luckily these settings can be easily changed if people change their mind. And if authors fail to mark their stories correctly, they can be reported so the team can correct the maturity level.

Adult stories can be reported because some content is not even allowed there, such as insulting people or planning criminal activity. If your stories are within the rules, the team will not take any action against you if they get reported though. More information can be found here: http://real-people.net/faq.php#question15

All groups have a content rating (Non-Adult, Mildly Adult or Adult), which is displayed in the top block of the right column (or bottom half on the mobile site). Mildly adult will be hidden from members of age 13-15 and those who set their content filters to Non-Adult, and Adult will be hidden for members of age 13-17 and those who set their content filters to Non-Adult or Mildly Adult. If the most appropriate group for your story is not rated Adult, you can also mark your individual stories as explicit using the check box below the option to add a poll. Applying these settings appropriately should be sufficient to allow extreme stories without bothering people who do not wish to see it.

But it just does not happen reliably.
Maybe people have their profiles set to Adult, when they mean Mild Adult etc; I guess no-one can do anything about that. Young teens of course are adept at saying they are who they are not.
Thanks for the prompt reply.

But another question then. If stories are duly marked Adult in bot places, why can we be reported?
