Ponyo, both the policy and I don't give a damn if it is crude sexually and disgustingly, every episode is PG-13. Hell, I'd rate one or two episodes PG.

I am planning to extend the PG-13 rating in a proposal either tonight or tomorrow, and the way I see it, it will let convert every R episode (except "Are", IDK) from R to PG-13, as well as convert many PG-13 episodes to PG.

And for the opposes, let me remind you what "R" actually means. According to the Motion Picture Association of America, the pegged standard for the SBFW Rating System:

"R - Restricted. Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian. Contains some adult material. Parents are urged to learn more about the film before taking their young children with them."

- 1995 MPAA Rating Guildine

You have to be under 17 to view R rated material without parental supervision, since I'm pretty sure everyone's parents here don't know what their children are doing here. Over 80% of the known population is in the 12-16 (PG-13 targeted) age group, so it's pointless to allow R-rated material.
