How much strong language is allowed in a 15?

there could potentially be a great deal. at 15 there is no upper limit on the number of uses of strong language. occasionally there may be uses of the strongest terms, depending on the manner in which they are used, who is using the language, its frequency and any special contextual justification. however, continued or aggressive use will not normally be passed 15.

what about horror works?

at 16 there can be strong threat and horror as long as there is no sustained focus on sadistic or sexualised threat.
