Two suggestions came up in the comments/suggestions thread recently: reinstate topic descriptions and put content ratings on topic pages. Done.

Topic Descriptions
Pretty simple. When you go to create a new literary work or other topic, you'll now have the option to add a short description as well. This is shown on the various forum indexes as well as on the 'View New Posts' area.


Content Ratings
For all literary works, you'll now see the content rating in small red print at the top of the topic. This way it's noticeable, but not over-bearing.

YES!

Thank you, Nate! I shall be using (possibly abusing) the topic descriptions to no end. Oh how I missed them.

And the content rating is quite helpful/a nice reminder.

Oohers, this could be very interesting. Will we be able to go back and add descriptions to older topics?
Never forget who you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.

This is pretty awesome. I first thought it was a glitch on my school computer, but now I know better! Thanks Nate! :D

Yay! I remember topic descriptions when I had my brief first round of visits to the site. I returned and BAM, they were gone.
I didn't know what to put here so I put this.
