Guess you did right on this thread Lars - I'd never have thought people who had been in the biz for more than a month would have missed this, but evidently some have been in it for years and still don't know about it.

Huh ...wow ... "sad" you're right.
About a year and half ago I tried to code a dynamically interactive rating system on a per page basis (thinking browser wars over now and rating systems mature).
In other words - the users of my site could rate the page according to ICRA.org and some pages would show and some would not depending on the personal setting in the web brower.
The PROBLEM was the "politics" of the rating system (IMO) AND the web browser was buggy in doing what it was supposed to do.
I eventually rated SexEducation.com with THE HIGHEST EXTREME CONTENT possible ... so entering any password ... any password disables SexEducation.com completely. In fact you have to reboot in order to test it.
Part of the problem with rating systems in the early days was the damn browsers would not work with them. Same thing with cookies and Microsoft INSTANTLY changing the date format.
IMO - if you haven't done due dillegence and rated your page - you're a target for litigation of some type - especially if you show aroused genitals or reproductive bodily fluids on your directly accessed domain name. You can't have it both ways. Hardcore AND not rated - "risk management" as learned right here on GFY ...lol
Rate your page it's simple and it's easy.
And if you think about it.
A website that has taken the time to rate it's page - would it not be more likely to contain the information it says - think Google algorithms now.
A few of my thoughts.
SexEducation.com has been rated for several years ...
