It's better to stay away from forums for any film/tv show etc if you don't want aspects of it spoiled. People will discuss spoilers and they'll usually use spoiler tags but when the HMs have been leaked as much as they have this season to the point it's common knowledge who is going in, spoilers are impossible to avoid.

I have to disagree on that. I don't read spoilers and I did manage to avoid the housemates' leak, as I don't read the websites which leak it. As far as I'm concerned, the identity of housemates who are yet to enter the house and weren't revealed officially by BB (unlike the footballer who's set to enter today or Rachel, who were both confirmed by BB) - it's a spoiler.
I do not wish to know who enters otherwise (and it's the same with house pics, but BB publishes it, so it's my decision).
Going to the forum and seeing names of future housemates in thread titles - it's spoiling my CBB21 experience.
You did lead a spoiler policy back on BB18 with the club names, even when it was leaked - I don't see why it shouldn't be enforced now, especially with the celeb version.

Probably because BB didn't release a trailer confirming all the HMs for the last BB like they did last night for the Male HMs.

It's up to you to avoid spoilers, I watch Game of Thrones, I won't go into the thread on here until I've watched the latest episode because I don't want to be spoiled. If I did go into the thread and see a spoiler then I can't blame anyone but myself for looking at the thread before I've watched the episode.

I don't agree with this comparison. It's like watching an eviction show only the next day and demanding people not to talk about who has been evicted when it has been already broadcasted - doesn't make any sense.
Also, the nature of BB is different and not the same as GoT.
I don't see anything wrong with having "OMG I can't believe! D.L. is entering today!" as a title for example - it's letting people the freedom of discussing BB in a BB forum (which I didn't say is not allowed, not sure why people insist this is the subtext), yet respecting people who do not wish to know.
It's like threads with titles like "And the third housemate to win immunity is..." - and inside you have the answer if you wish to know. Is it too hard?

Yeah this is how I feel about it too. If it's a situation where potential housemates are being mentioned elsewhere online, say on twitter or in the tabloids etc, as many of them are this series, I think it should be expected that a forum dedicated to BB would also have those things going on. Y.winter's right though that there was a rule leading up to BB18 where those spoilers weren't allowed so having inconsistency like that could lead people to log on assuming the forum will be free of spoilers which I suppose could be very annoying if you're wanting to avoid them.
