How ''bad'' is your blog?

Okay, I'm curious about everyone else now. I was just combing through some of Crotchety Old Man's suggested blogs to read from one of his last posts and I noticed one had a widget with a PG rating. So, I checked our blog out on their rating system, though I didn't choose to use their widget on our blog. We got what I feel is a very undeserved NC-17 rating. Heck, when we quote a vulgar curse word, we use asterisks! What does your blog rate as and do you think it sounds about right? The link to check it is here: www.oneplusyou.com/bb/blog_rating
Also, for anyone who reads our blog (those 3 or 4 of you) do you think we're more PG-13 or NC-17? I feel like we're more PG-13.

Also, I'll add that when an AD pops up, just to the lower right corner you can skip it. That's what I did anyway.
~Lucy-
Ok, I have done this with other ratings systems and it came out PG or PG 13. With this site it's R because I used the word porn 3 times, and hell once?
Is this a site developed by cloistered nuns living in a time warp in 1939?
-
-
mine is PG 13 because of the following words "pain", "sexy"-
*Pain*? Are you kidding me? Yeah, I don't like this ratings system.
~Lucy -
LOL!, mine is rated pg-13 also and i have to say that i agree.
-
-
I got a PG for saying gun 7 times and ass one time. Eh, I'll get NC-17 sooner or later, Plus so far I only have three posts.
As for your site, Eh it seems tame. I wouldn't of gone past an R rating. NC-17 should be porn and gore.-
"This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words: gun (7x) hell (3x) crappy (2x) ass (1x) "
This is bull doo doo! Overnight I added Crappy and Hell for a total of 5 extra words and I get bumped up two ratings?
-
-
my blog is rated R, because of the words drugs, death, hurt, dead ...
i didnt expect that my blog could be rated R
... its really surprising-
If your blog was a movie it sounds like it would be along the lines of a Scarface....
-
-
PG 13 for sure. Very clean. -
I'm laughing because my humor blog is currently listed at PG-13, and one of the reasons is, I used the word "Zombie" nine times.
Um, first, it was a humor piece on zombies. So, um yeah.
Second-- when did zombie become a bad word?
I also used "kill" because, well, again... the zombies. -
My recent blog ( jiveturkeyreform.blogspot.com ) that is only four posts old is R-rated. I just checked. I even have the same asterisk policy on it too. I suppose it'd be X-rated without the asterisks. Filth and Flarn! Filth and Flarn!
~Lucy-
Okay, that's weird that you say Filth and Flarn...I just read...okay, wait a minute. I think I'm going to start a discussion thread on this. You'll see. -
Okay, never mind. I won't do a thread. I just looked at the site again and it was posted last year. For all I know they had a discussion about this already. It's here if you want to see it: bigscreenlittlescreen.net/2007/07/19/filth-flarn-filth-never-happened-says-... It's Bill Cosby calling Eddie Murphy a ''nasty liar'' when asked about Eddie's famous bit where he imitates Bill and says ''Filth and Flarn'', calling Eddie up and lecturing him about his profanity. I'm sure that's why you said it, anyway, so you're familiar with the bit. Anyway, Bill says Richard Pryor even called him and said that Eddie wasn't being honest about what Richard said in regards to Cosby either. Who knows?

This is what i got...
THIS BLOG IS RATED G
GENERAL AUDIENCE
ALL AGES ADMITTED..
Oh God something is wrong... -
Mine is rated G. Oh, noes! -
Brilliant! R-17 because...
drugs (11x)death (2x)murder (1x) -
My personal blog has a G rating and so does Proof Positivity. Not real suprised I have kids I have lived G rated for 5 years. -
*You guys* got NC-17?! That's just stupid, lol. It's completely stupid. Even your post that told about history's first vibrators is not an NC-17 thing. What words did it? Ours was only rated R for: sex (7x) porn (2x) kill (1x)
-
No! We CANNOT be rated worse than you are. Look at your last post! lol. Do they just not know what an ''RJ'' is? Do they not count the word ''anus''? Don't get me wrong, we love you guys but you're way raunchier than we are. Plus, again, we have an asterisk system, Doggone it. I didn't notice our buzz words before. I checked and it's ''sex (16x) dead (4x) drugs (3x) gun (2x) porn (1x) '' But you've got far less posts. We're at 130 something I think. A lot of sex comes up in 130 posts, you know. My Jive Turkey blog is rated R for : ''sex (7x) sexy (4x) ass (3x) dangerous (1x) '' So, the word ''Dangerous'' is all adult, I guess. What a bunch of filth and flarn! lmao

Yes it is a waste, my natural health blog got rated "R" pain(64) -

I'm not surprised, but I have a lot more curse words on there than that!-
I am with ya mine is rated R too, I did this a while back
-
-
nc-17. understandable, as i can't finish a post without dropping at least one "f-bomb". though i don't get why they'd cite "masochist" as a reason for the rating. eff them. haha.
-
Thank you, loverofjazz. We didn't want to be THE ONLY ONE with an NC-17 rating. Again...we have an asterisk policy that we really thought was workin' for us.
~Lucy
Don't take a risk-Asterisk. -
Mine is G because I am pure of mind and spirit.
-
-
"G No bad words were found." However my guess would be that you have to be at least 18 to understand my blog. -
Surprisingly, mine is PG and I only used fucking once. -
Mine is PG-13 I'd say. Though I talk about sex sometimes there are no pics.
-
Both of my blogs are PG but I don't see any point in posting the badge with the backlink in them. A link is a link and I don't believe that posting one will bring me any backlinks. It simply provides an out click to the rating site. Meh
BTW if you read the guidelines for this BC forum you will find that it's a PG forum. www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/read-before-posting-1

Foul language or porn will result in your posts being removed-
OOooh you are bad then TT cos I got G for mine...all ages
-
DANG it! I typed in the wrong thing I meant to type "G" in both places where I typed "PG" above. arrggghhh!

Thanks for the heads up chrissymarie

Wow. Mine is "R" based on these words...sexy (6x) sex (5x) death (4x) hell (1x) ....
The kids on the DC Metro say worse things than that....plus I think I leave a lot to the imagination...I never disclosed what really happened between me & Island Prince And I never used a curse word!!! (I don't remember using one) -
But anyone that reads it, would get what happened..., re Island Prince!
-
haha, with all the half naked pictures of girls on mine, its a G!-
lol it's based on semantics lol
-
-
Hip Hip Hooray!
Mine is "G" rated. All ages admitted..
But I did get a warning from a site check a while ago because I had rainforestrobin's blog url and name on my blog-roll... Naked in Eden lol -
my blog
-
Mine at www.huggingthecoast.com is G Rated, but that's because I blog about food. It did flag the word "knife" though LOL! -
Heh this page got an NC-17 for "the presence of the following words: sex (6x) porn (5x) ass (4x) death (3x) dangerous (2x) knife (1x) "
Update: sex (7x) porn (6x) ass (5x) death (4x) dangerous (3x) knife (2x) fucking (1x)-
Lol. You're checking this page, too? Every time you report on it, it'll get worse. Do they have an X-rating?
~JD
EDIT: Sex, pain, hurt, sex, pain, hurt.

Also rated "G" for www.olliemag.com , though they found the word "suck" 1 time hehe.
-
My blog is rated G but the word "shit" was found twice. I dont even know when I used the word "shit" because I dont really cuss...but whatever! Im happy with a G!
-
I'm rated G. I don't think it even had warnings. -
Rated R for Bitchx3, shitx1 and ... sexyx1?
Fine with me. The Truth isn't always pretty and I like how the black on red poster goes with my color scheme. -
Rated m [ motivation ] -
LOL! Mine was PG for the words "death" "torture" and "drugs"... too funny -
My blog will kick yer ass.... -
biatch(2x) pain(1x)
Im innocent
-
interesting: i'm rated pg.
let's see ... because i have used the word sex 5 times and dead once.
i have about 750 posts and that's all they could come up with?
pg must stand for perennial geek!
i'm an embarrassment!!
i always thought of myself as somewhat of a bad boy.
instead, i'm a king of the goody two shoes.
well this was a fine idea!
just swell!
i need to reexamine my whole life now ... thank you very much! -
Wow, I got NC17 for excessive use of death/dead/pain/suicide/breasts. Dead 220 times since April.
Who knew?-
that's alot of death, what are you blogging about? forensics? funeral homes?
:-) -
Death. No. Really. Death. Dying. Death.
-
-
I just did a post on how I feel about my rating from that site. I simply think they like to mess with your head!
@DrJoanne
thank you for posting that as I've been wondering how to catapult myself into the NC-17 club -- death/dead/pain/breasts those are all doable. -
I'm renaming my blog Death PORN. Sheesh. NC17. Wow.
-
-
Rated G for content, but I swear, some of my recipes are NC 17, R and X. -
I know I've used some of them in X-rated ways!
-
LOL! You'll have to blog about that.
-
Hmmm...that might just get me to that coveted NC-17
-
with words like breasts, hot and cream flying around the kitchen, how did you avoid an xxx?
-
Hahahahaha...

Since this rating system apparently feels "zombie" is a bad word, it encouraged me to write a humor post regarding this little rating system...
cabbages-n-kings.blogspot.com/2008/10/z-word.html
And now it turns out-- blogging about the rating system, well, I'm now an R blog.
Yes, saying "zombie" 11 times, and "kill" (as in the beloved movie "To Kill a Mockingbird") will net ya an R rating!
I feel so filthy! -
You dirty girl. Claire rubbed off on you. Oops - I mean ... forget it.
-
I like Claire, but, er, not THAT much.
Plus, I can't wield expletives and creative insults the way she can. That's a talent. -
That's a gift!!!
-
Oh no, the system is mutating.
-
-
Well I feel sort of lame. I had one "pain" and got a G. I should add something about a gun, I guess!
-
Now, that's weird. I wonder how far back they check. my blog was filled with "pain" last year when my husband was hurt.
-
I suspect it's only whatever posts are directly on the home page. We'll see if by Wednesday, once the zombies go, I'm back to G or PG.
-
Jenn,
So, I need to make sure that I have death/zombie/kill/breasts on my front page at the same time?!! Let me know ~ k -
Yes, Angie, I'd say that that combination would be a real winner toward a successful R rating.
If you can add a few references to comedian Dick van Dyke in there a couple of times, too, that might just push it over the edge. -
yes, I can see where Dick could come in handy for this whole rating thingy!!
-
Death is probably rated higher than gun, dick, breasts, or zombie.
Good grief. This is really quite funny.
-
-
My blog is soooo bad (how bad is it?), it's so bad that everyone who visits it, gets their nose rubbed in poo.
blog, dog. poo, ewwww.-
Ewwww. *stays away from this blog*
-
-
Im G because i use words like rainbows, puppies, kittens and friends -
Bad. -
We did it! Yes! Ye-e-e-e-e-e-e-s! Finally...a succesful thread. Sure, it's no baking soda. That's obvious. The opening of the Baking Soda thread is responsible for blowing up 7 laptops, 3 desktops and a wicked depression of one NASA super computer. The point is, we finally got a thread that at least didn't sink like Vinnie the Icepick wearing a stylish pair of concrete shoes. That's the point, here. Thanks BC members for not leaving us hang. We promise not to let it go to our heads though...honest.
~Lucy-
Maybe its because we combined two taboos: S-E-X and D-E-A-T-H
Let's have more of that!
