Alt.TV.ER.Creative Categories List.
by Sharon McKay (Sha...@aol.com)

The following is a list of categories for fanfic to be posted on this
newsgroup. It will help readers to determine what the story is about, and the
censorship rating. The categories can either be added to the subject line, or
in the information in the first paragraph of the first post.

Censorship ratings:
These are much like movies and television. But I thought it best to add ages
since this is an international group:)
G- General. Usually contains no graphic language, no violence, no sex, and only
the slightest innuendo.
PG- Parental Guidance. Usually contains extremely mild graphic language,
references to violence, mild sexual innendo.
M15+ - Mature. contains some graphic language (the F word could come in here)
mildly graphic violence, mild sex.
NC17- not suitable for the under 17 age group. contains graphic sex, violence
and language (all words worse than f*** belong here)

Content Categories:
DC- Doug & Carol
AC- Anna & Carter
BC- Benton & Corday
K- Kerry
MS- Mark & Susan
CAST- involves all or most cast members

Add the following to any of the above- eg DCR: Doug & Carol Romance, KH: Kerry
Humour etc...

R- Romance

H- Humour

Nfic- adult content, usually involves sex.

O- Other (might be good to specify what, if it's violent etc...)

Slash- male-male or female-female nfic

If a category you'd like is not here, please email me at Sha...@aol.com and
I'll be happy to add it to the list:)
