We’ve rolled out a series of forum updates this week to introduce ratings to forum threads. When making a new thread, you will now see a selector to set the intended rating.
The main priority of this update is to give Adult ratings to adult threads. We aren’t planning to split hairs over the nuances of E and T threads.
Important note: This doesn’t mean you can post nudes, or porn you’ve found on the Internet in an adult thread. Adult threads are intended for artists who are sharing their art, in particular in the Art Forum, where there are a good number of NSFW threads that have now been updated.
We still need to make updates to show ratings in the thread listings. We also plan to let thread creators edit the rating on their own threads at any time after the thread has been created.
The forum listings and forum search will now apply your ratings filters, so if you think threads are missing, check your filters. The filter toggle wasn't there when this launched but it has now been added.
I hope everyone is enjoying their spring! The feed overhaul is still in progress and won’t result in any visible changes but will improve overall performance and server storage for feeds. Similarly there have been text editor updates in progress that will mainly be back-end improvements. This year has been all about "not fun but necessary" projects so far.
