Isn't half the point of a forum to share spoilers with others who are interested? If you don't want to read them - DON'T. If that member continues to spoil things for you then put him on your ignore list!

Firstly, why bother, no one will listen to you.
Secondly don't click the threads that says SPOILERS, cos you guess it they contain ****ing spoilers!
Thirdly, what Shaun said.

1) There WAS NO WARNING. It's not as simple as just not reading them.
2) He is on my ignore list; I ignored him after the first spoiler. But that was still enough to ruin the show and it could still ruin it for other members.

It DIDN'T say spoilers! There was no warning! Obviously I wouldn't have clicked it if there were a warning.

How about the mods then edit the titles of posts with spoilers to say "Spoiler Warning" in them and give the poster a warning?

The Moderators have a life, like we do, they don't moderate 24/7 and look through every single post.

Give the poster a warning? For what? Its not against the rules to put spoilers up.

I know, I'm saying it should be.

Well its pretty stupid to give a member a warning for posting a spoiler, were only human, no ones perfect. People don't realise that its a spoiler, everyone makes mistakes. Gees, if I got a warning for posting a spoiler I would think its pretty lame.

I understand that but people should at least be polite and put a warning on spoilers. That's what I do.

If it's BB-related, then just don't come on here.

Spoiler topics usually have the words "SPOILER" in them. :tongue:

Aw, thanks Rory. :hug:

But this particular one didn't have any sort of warning at all. :sad:

"Advice?" :laugh3: :laugh2:

And quite frankly I really don't care. Change it back if you'd like.

But telling someone to "stop being stupid" is not giving advice.

I'm not acting like a moderator, simply offering a suggestion.

Quite frankly I don't really care what you think of me. I thought you were (it's were) "sound" until you started being so rude.

Yes, I did make a suggestion as to what I think would be a good change to the rules. That's what this section is for, after all. If you didn't want to read suggestions you shouldn't have come to this category.

I'll leave it there, but I take back the "**** or ****" comment back as it was innaporpriate

Yesterday you made a thread demanding for no new registrations as a "joke" and today you want to ban all spoilers? Get off your high horse.

But at least try to think before making such stupid suggestions.
This is a Big Brother forum right ? (I hope you did realize but we never know) So what do you expect from this ? People waiting for the HL shows ?
Personally, I can get away from the spoilers easily there by not coming 2 days before the launch or during an event or even during the finale. And I am sure I am not the only one.

So make an effort instead of 'giving warnings to people who post spoilers'.

Most of the time there are big (SPOILER)/[SPOILER] words in the thread title... that means they are spoilers... don't click them

xDramatick

31-08-2008, 09:54 AM

I can see where you're coming from.
I hate threads that have spoilers in the title.

But putting 'SPOILERS' in the title kinda shows that you shouldn't read it =]

James

31-08-2008, 10:09 AM

No problem with threads with spoilers as long as there is a warning or the information is in spoiler tags.

If someone forgot that we would edit it. Banning would be a bit extreme, unless they did it deliberately to annoy people.

Lauren

31-08-2008, 11:15 AM

Like James said, it's a moderators job to try and rid of all the spoilers that don't say they are.

If you find an issue with a post, report it.

If we banned every member that made every mistake then most of the good members wouldn't be here, including yourself, myself, and most members in this thread too

when is a spoiler not a spoiler?

I only watch the HL's show and I find on Tuesday evening long before I know who is actually nominated there are threads here and occasionally a poll by James to who goes on Friday(with no spoiler warning), this is because the info has been officially annouced on a show I dont watch.

Alternatively though on live feeds, results of a task are officially announced in the same manner yet when threads pass on this info they need to add "spoiler warnings"... wheres the difference, if its been put in the public domain on an official site like the nominations results.

so, when is a spoiler not a spoiler?

bigbr0ther

31-08-2008, 04:33 PM

I know that posts with 'Spoilers' in the title will have spoilers. This one had no warning at all though. If you've ever had a show spoiled for you, you know how annoying it is!

It is annoying, and as mods we try and prevent it from happening.

But it's also not so serious an offence to warrant a banning, especially as some may do it by accident.

I just don't click on them but there was once when it didn't say spoiler and i read something i didn't want to know about before the event but i just accepted it to be a mistake by the poster i didn't complain about it though it didn't do my head in that much xx
