Ah, good. It was locked. I was thinking there was
something wrong with my browser for not being able to find
the "reply" button.
 
 Is there some symbol around to show that the topic is locked
(not in the forum list I mean, but when you select from the
"top ten"-list)? Would be a nice touch to have the "reply"
button be replaced by a padlock for example, instead of the
button being completely absent.

This is a family oriented site, please keep everything on a low G to PG rating. Anything PG13 or up will likely get removed.

 
Out of curiosity, what does these G, PG, etc really mean?
They don't have any practical meaning in Sweden, so I
haven't learned the abbreviation. I know PG is Parental
Guidance, but there is a whole range of abbreviations
(supposedly to less and less children-appropriate
content)...?
 
Anyone care to enlighten me?

So the R is the highest rating (not allowed for anyone
below 17), whereas X and NC-17 are actually somewhat
milder (not allowed for kids under 17 but allowed when with
parental supervision)?
