With the movie coming in August there are always fans who don't want any spoilers. Sometimes thread titles can give away secrets. I think we should start being more careful with our thread titles so we don't spoil anything for those who don't want it. It can be a little tricky that way but it is a courtesy to others.

I think if someone doesn't want too be spoiled they shouldn't look at the G.I. Joe Live Action Movie board where it's common knowledge that spoilers have been spread about for atleast a year

if one wants to avoid spoilers...one should avoid any public joe or even movie forums. regardless of what section youre in....any asswipe can just post a ramdom spoiler. warnings are great, but in no way, can they be considered the be all end all of trustworthiness. listen to me on this...spoiler-spreaders will always win.
if you dont want to know.......its time for you to go. |

I'm talking about in the thread titles that show up on the front page. For example: "Who The Heck Is Plying Shipwreck?!" From that thread title, you now know (or think) Shipwreck is in the movie. Some people don't want to know anything.
I personally don't care. Just thought I would be courteous.

People should be courteous. No reason not to be.
But it goes both ways. People that don't want spoilers need to be aware that they are out there and may come without warning, so should avoid public forums. See a thread called "Who's playing Shipwreck" and avoid it. But people writing threads should be courteous as well: Instead of a post saying "So and So is Shipwreck" it could be "Look who's playing Shipwreck" and would have to look in the thread to see who it is, so people that don't want to see can avoid it.

I have to agree with Tyronos, some courtesy in very obvious places is in order. However, it can't be eliminated entirely.
Over at other boards I frequent, new book/movie spoilers are taged by putting a spoiler warning, a bunch of space, spoiler, more space, and an end-spoiler notification. Like this: SPOILER WARNING FOR G.I. JOE MOVIE Ripcoard had the hots for Scarlett END SPOILERS Its a way in regular threads to allow people to avoid spoilers if they want to. |

There should be a warning in the thread title. Granted it is hard to not know the secrets of every movie these days, but sometimes aholes deliberately try to ruin stuff. IF someone is trying to avoid knowing the full outcome of a movie/show/whatever the warning will help them steer clear of those threads. Me i could care less, i'm just thinking of others.
