The Spoiler Tag Rules

Re: The Spoiler Tag Rules

I mean, I know nothing about that movie or when it was released as it's not in my area of interest but I would certainly think so.

Also may want to spoiler your response to me in case you think that's a spoiler that shouldn't have been given.


To me, there is a big difference between spoiling something in a thread dedicated to the movie/show in question versus a random thread such as that one or the OT thread where anything and everything can be discussed.

If I don't want to see a potential spoiler in a particular movie or show it's easy for me to avoid that thread but it's impossible to know to avoid the OT thread if a spoiler is posted.

Yea I just looked at imdb page for the show. The season started in late september and finished just over a month ago, May 12th. And I do the same thing I am waiting for Arrow and the Flash to come to Netflix, so I haven't entered either one of those threads. But that Agents of SHIELD thing I had no way to avoid, it was a post replying to me and it was an OT thread.

In that case and in that thread I would say it certainly shouldn't have been spoiled.

I am years behind in several shows (one being Game of Thrones as an example). I was unable to avoid the big recent spoiler because of social media but that's on me I guess.

I don't go in that thread and I've done that with many other shows/movies in the past.

I hate being so careful avoiding threads here intentionally only to have something spoiled in the OT thread.


But more to the point of the ultimate question, I think at this point the statute of limitations has run out on a movie like Ghostbusters. FYI, the Stay Puff Marshmallow man dies.

The moment I was talking about happened (spoiler is a number)

Spoiler

7

months ago, so didn't think something then would've counted as a spoiler,even out of thread. Guess I just got caught up in the thread since we were talking about things in our fave tv shows,we didn't like.

Re: The Spoiler Tag Rules

What about talking about s1 finale of a show,2 weeks before s2 happens, not using spoiler tags? I mean its been 4 months, if someone has something about s1 spoiled a week or two before s2 airs,its their own fault for reading the thread isnt it? I mean people will be talking about past season and upcoming one now.....

Also to add to this...the show is probably going to be on Netflix within a week. So people can watch it before the new season comes out.

People shouldn't enter a season 2, 3, whatever show thread if they haven't seen the previous seasons.

Many threads here aren't exactly S1,S2,S3 threads. It might just be one big thread for the entire series.

Yea I agree with you on that one. But like Maj said it's a show thread not broken off into separate seasons. And the only reason I went into the thread was because the show is probably going to becoming to Netflix soon (next week or 2) so that's the only reason why I entered the thread, to find out if any info had been posted as to when it is going to be on streamed on Netflix.

Re: The Spoiler Tag Rules

It's really just about looking out for each other.

In threads specific to the show/movie if you haven't caught up, or don't want to be spoiled, don't go into the thread.


Just don't spoil shows or movies in random threads like the OT thread.

Re: The Spoiler Tag Rules

I'm just going to bump this so we can get any spoiler discussion out of other threads so folks can discuss the movie or shows in there.

By all means, continue the spoiler discussion if you like, let's just do it here rather than in other threads.
