Fair enough, but I can't emphasize enough how much current demand (at least on my sub) is for a post-level NSFL tag.

As it stands, these tags are deeply unhelpful for communities where content can range considerably, and they do in most of the communities I frequent.

Also, they don't seem to make a useful intensity distinction at the high end, e.g. rating an M for swearing doesn't make it seem like an M is as serious as an NSFW tag currently is, and X and V tags seem to correspond more closely with NSFW than NSFL.

For example, everything on r/combatfootage would earn a V, which doesn't assist anybody in discerning between the more banal footage and the occasional stuff that would *really* gross someone out.

Bottom line, this rating system seems designed for parental guidance of children and young teens, not adults.
