WAR rated T or M

what do you guys think this game should be rated? After all, this is Warhammer and we know how much blood and gore there is in the books and the games.  I saw make it M so that it actually feels like war and so that there will be no restrictions for the devs

    Definitely M.

    As much as I would like it to be rated Mature, it will be rated Teen.  Besides, Teen ratings now adays can go pretty far in terms of content.

    This is interesting, Mark Jacobs said they wanted WAR rated T for Teen to have a larger market and i can't deny him, BUT ripping skulls off a fallen dwarf and planting it on a spike in your armor do not seem very "Teen" to me. Then maybe it is? in EU we have different ratings, so it is kinda hard for me to know :D

    (example: the Grand Theft series in EU has always been classified 18+, hot coffee or not, cause Euro countries gives precedence to violence in ratings and forgive naked chests or sexual related stuff more easily).

    I hope it's rated M just so it cuts down on the WoW kiddies from getting a hold of such a game. Sure some kiddies might end up playing this game but hopefully a M rating will make mommy and daddy think twice before getting their brat a account. Those that do get their kiddie a account for a M rated MMORPG should have CPS called on them. 

    Games I've played/tried out:WAR, LOTRO, Tabula Rasa, AoC, EQ1, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, FFXI, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars,Star Wars Galaxies, Hell Gate London, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H, Star Trek Online, APB, Champions Online, FFXIV, Rift Online, GW2.

    Game(s) I Am Currently Playing:

    While I would want WAR to be a really gritty M-rated game, Mythic and MJB have explicitly declared  the T-rating. We just have to live with it I guess. The RvR can still kick ass and really what other MMOs are being developet atm. This is our last hope.

    A Mature rating for an MMO would be cool, but would also be retarded.  To make it M you'd have to have all kinds of gore and body parts and that means lag.  So for the sake of playability I'm going to say Teen, just because Teen games also have blood, they just dont have gore.

    Uhh. Im not that into gore and bodyparts. I thought you could go into the interesting stuff in the warped warhammer world a bit more if it was a M-rated game. You know mutaded child protitutes, rape, torture, men with bleeding vaginas mutating out of their faces and other warhammer stuff.
