I saw that. It was very :psyduck:

I've never really been all that bothered by spoilers since the main point of media is usually the journey and not the end result. I like being surprised but knowing what's going to happen isn't going to ruin it for me.

My philosophy is that being reasonable about spoilers is fine, and that expecting the entire internet to bend over backwards for your sake is weird and terrible.

There was a thread about spoilers going on in CineD and I remember one guy hated that his friends would be talking about stuff like the newest Game of Thrones episode on Facebook, Twitter, etc the day after it aired. People want to talk about something they just watched, and he hated them for it.

I looked at TVIV and just found out that they have a Doctor Who thread and...a Doctor Who spoiler thread

What on earth.

Who fans combined with TVIV's over the top spoilerphobia sounds like the worst combination.

You're not wrong.

LoGH is presented as a historical documentary either way. it doesn't care much about spoilers. even beyond the next episode previews, the narrator in the episode will very blatantly allude to future events

LoGH owns and I'm glad Yang is getting married to a top tier waifu

i try to avoid spoilers because i think the way/time something is revealed, is a part of the narrative as intended and so it's worth preserving

people are absolutely insane about them though

yeah there's something to be said for the value of a fresh experience, but if a work's legitimately good it will still be good without that. like how good movies might have been filmed with the intention of a certain element being a twist or a surprise, but they're still good even though the studio decided to make that twist a focal part of the advertising.

it'd be really cool if I could've watched T2 without having any of the cultural osmosis that led me to know the twist ahead of time, but it was still a cool movie

Yeah, while I typically don't care I understand why people do, and I will accommodate as much as I find it to be reasonable.

When the Eva blu-rays come out and I run the simul for it, I figure I might just say something in the OP like "The show is old enough that people know a lot of the major beats even if they haven't seen it, so spoilers are fair game but please try to keep them related to the episodes we've seen".

I can understand why somebody might think that, but at that point you just shouldn't be reading threads about the game. Honestly it isn't that hard to avoid spoilers unless you need to look at the thread for that thing every single day.
