WHY WHY WHY

[timepiececlock]

katara_zuko, I could kick you. Why do you guys insist on spoiling me? Is it so very hard to contain all your squeeing and ranting to a single very well-advertised spoiler post? Which BTW, is a spoiler-discussion system you all VOTED on with 86.5% in favor. How come I keep telling you all not to post spoiler discussion AND YOU ALL KEEP DOING IT ANYWAY? Even people I lectured about spoilers just like two weeks ago?! ARGH.

Of course, every time I have to delete a spoiler post I pretty much end up being forced to read it. WHICH IS NOT FUN FOR ME.

I am also, and I can't really believe this, but I'm also considering staying away from the comm for the next two weeks. Which would be remiss of me as an active mod, I know. But I just don't want spoilers for the finale-- someone already gave me a rumor I didn't want to hear, and that was more than enough. Of course I'm spoiled for tomorrow's episode just because people keep POSTING about it.

I mean, come on! If I'm really going to be running around all next year not paying attention to fandom and missing all of season 3 then I'd like to MAYBE, JUST MAYBE watch the season 2 finale without being accidentally spoiled up to my ears. Is that so much to ask for? Is it really?

Argh. ::kicks the comm:: Stop trying to ruin my tv experience! Fandom is my friggin' hobby, let me enjoy it!


P.S. I'm so over feeling guilty about deleting people's posts because they break the rules. I'd go delete two or three right now if I wasn't irked by the whole situation.

But--but---Rashaka, don't you want to squee over the spoilers too?



Just kidding with you. I was wondering when someone was going to harp down on the spoilers. I kinda just sat their twiddling my thumbs like...'Hmm...Rashaka or Little_fool or someone is going to see this soon...'

They aren't what I'd call super-huge spoilers, either. They're episode descriptions that you find when you click 'info' on the TVguide. Simple, two-three line stuff. Or else I'd be mad, too, because SotF was kinda ruined for me by spoilers and I've been trying hard not to read every single one I come across. >.<

I harped last time and it didn't stick (well, that's not entirely true, because amoebafive did apologize to me later and I don't think she'll post spoilers again, but then again it was her first offense, where some of these spoiler posters have done so more than once.) I figured best to call in the big guns (littlebrat, who I love modding under.)

You know, one of the things you guys might want to try to do is that, instead of just having a monthly spoiler post, having a weekly or a biweekly spoiler post instead. That way, it's newer and fresher on people's minds, and people won't be scared that others won't see what they posted on it.

Or maybe mess with the layout and move the spoiler post tag up so that it's one of the first things people see, and maybe make it bold or red or blinking, something that people notice more.

(for the recond, I use the spoiler post, but I know I'm only one of few.)
