@JHgamer101 Atkinson stepped down from his position a while ago. His replacement was apparently more open minded about it. But when all the AGs met to discuss it, they couldn't make a decision, so they postponed it, and now there is apparently another AG who is against the R rating, the one from Victoria I think. He is basically just echoing the Australia Christian Lobby group (Who are renowned for blocking points of view that disagree with them no matter how respectful the person is).

@CriticalPunishment im from vic do u know hes name that not fare man he back down and now we got another ass great and this one is from vic that were i ma at oh well do u know when r they gona re try the R18 for games again

@JHgamer101 I think the next meeting is in July. The Minister for Home Affairs, Brendan O'Connor is in full support of the R rating and says that the next meeting is either yes or no, no more farting around with 'let's do a few more studies'.

The Victorian AG's name is Robert Clark I think. I'm in Victoria too, I hope he gets pressure put on him just like Atkinson did.

can gaming companies sue the government for discrimination via social origin under commonwealth laws

[CriticalPunishment]

@imfrickenawesomeable I wouldn't have the faintest idea. If they could do something like that though I think we'd hear of it more.

@CriticalPunishment i agree with you alot on this subject mate cause i was pissed of when they refused classification to mortal kombat 2011. Pc games i don't get to worried about because i just import them from the UK but they've said they'll be on the lookout for MK so there's a chance i might not get it.
