Hey All,

As a courtesy for possible spoilers when discussing anime, please encode spoiler comments this way:

[spoiler]spoiler goes here[/spoiler]

Please be sure to use the "Preview" button to make sure that you typed it out correctly before submitting. Good luck and have fun!! ^_^

Phade.

on top of putting spoilers into quotes i think you sould make them smaller ... quote them and make them about size 7,

You know how many VOE spoliers i picked up trying to scroll past posts filled with spoilers trying to get to other parts of a thread.

*Hatter curtsies the spoilers*

Oh wait, you said COURTESY...hrmmm...now there's a word that's not in my vocabulary. *sigh* Bother.

The difficult question is what you define as spoilers. I mean, some people are kinda freaky and don't wanna know ANYTHING about a series, like even what the characters names are. But then you have other peeps, who as long as you don't give away the precise dialog, don't much care. So uh, I guess the best bet is to just find some place in the middle and go with yer own judgement... *shrugs*

Of course my own personal opinions fall somewhere along the lines of "People should learn not to read the spoilers in the first place!" I mean obviously if someone starts a thread about Hellsing and you've never watched it before and don't want any of it to be spoiled, well freakin duh, don't read the damn thing! o_O

...ahem...of course that's just my nasti evul insidious side thinkin out loud.

you have to remember that people are generally stupid, therefore its needed to keep from upsetting the dumb.

It's also useful fo when discussing spoilers to a specific series in a non-series-specific thread. Such as, in a "favourite couples" thread, someone might want to talk about a couple that don't get together until later in a particular series, and hence might spoiler-hide such that other people can talk about obvious, spoiler-free couples without ruining that series.
