Spoiler Courtesy

[Propyro]

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

hey theres plenty of times i've seen spoilers to shows that were in threads that had nothing to do with the show, or just vaugely associated with it.

Ie. I think I got his with an escaflowne spoiler in an anime sex thread once.

why bother doing this though? if anyone REALLY wanted to know cuz alot of pplz r the kind who read the back of the books 1st, theyd use this thing newayz!!! sorry hadda get that out

If you're asking why we should use spoiler tags at all- and I'm not entirely sure that you are- it's so that people can choose whether or not they want to see the spoilers.

In my opinion, I like to read spoilers because I can't wait until the anime series/episode comes out. I read them to find out about the characters and the plot and such. It doesn't spoil the anime for me, it just gives me something to look forward to. Because, nothing can spoil the actual viewing of an anime. But, I can comply w/ other people's desires in not wanting to have their anime 'spoiled' on them. Cause I'm just a cute little girl in her own cute little anime world.

hmmm.. what are spoilers anyways? hidden txt? for what? i dont get it...

Hey LoST RaiNDRoP,

A spoiler is a major plot point to someone who hasn't seen the show/movie yet. Example: Someone has never seen the original movie "Star Wars". A spoiler for that could be:

In the middle of the movie, Obewan is killed by Darth Vader so that Luke, Leia, and the rest can excape from the Death Star.

OR

Darth Vader is actually Luke Skywalker's father.

Mentioning something like that to someone who hasn't seen the movie could effectively "spoil" the movie for them since they already know what is going to happen.

Unfortunatly, most modern movie trailers are just a bunch of spoilers. I really really really wish they didn't say "I see dead people" in the trailer for Sixth Sense. That would have made the first half of the movie MUCH more enjoyable.

Anyways, I hope this helps. Good luck and have fun!! ^_^

Phade.

Or you are a very good/fast reader, and can read what ever is on the screen, like me. If it says spoiler, no matter how fast I scroll past it, I'll know what it said. I'm sure there are others like that too.

Exactly. What I usually do is just don't open a thread that has a topic about an anime I've never watched.
