It is really simple

* If the thread you want to start is a theory - put theory/speculation in the title.

* If the thread you want to start is a rumor - put rumor in the title.

* If the thread you want to start is a spoiler - put spoiler in the title.

* If a thread is posted that does not have rumor in the title you can only discuss present and past stuff. You can speculate on the future but stay away from the spoiler stuff.

* Comings and goings are not spoilers so you can post on those to your hearts content.

Okay, I know y'all thought this subject was handled and done BUT...! I must be really dense because isn't speculation just like people having a conversation about what MIGHT happen? Granted, if someone knows what WILL happen it should be told as a spoiler. I thought speculation was just sorta bs back and forth. I don't like spoilers but I do like tossing ideas around.

I thought we could BS about it too , it sounds like we have a set of new rules to follow. You can only BS about the past and the present , everything else has to be rated a certain way.

I didn't mean to turn anyone's world upside down lol

If you are just tossing ideas around, it isn't a big deal. But, if you happen to hit it and it is a spoiler, even if you didn't know that it was a spoiler, it will get edited.

first let me say, I am sorry to keep stirring this pot, esp because as you said editing is no big deal, but I feel I just need to repeat my main problem in understanding your stance on this. #1 is that the title of the thread is what the future holds, I'll tell you mine you tell yours and we will see who comes close (or something like that) ok, to me this almost sounds like a game. A game in which I was clearly told to GUESS. (it is in the title of the thread) Well apparently I came pretty close and was edited along with everyone else. Then I am told it should have said spoiler, then it should have said speculate(it did in other words, but it did)Then I see EVERYONE else on EVERY other thread speculating and not being edited, form this perspective, it makes one (me ) believe that it isn't safe to make guesses...so why would I continue to post when it's the banter and opinions of others that keeps us coming back for more???

The original post that was edited, was edited because it was asking to guess on what was going to happen with the storylines. That is fine. What was not fine was the spoilers that were in the first post and the spoilers that kept being discussed in subsequent posts. That would have been fine if the thread was marked with a spoiler.

Like I said before, it is ok to speculate, keep posting how you have been. If something that you were speculating comes out to be a spoiler, then it will be edited. It is really no big deal to be edited (unless you are fighting with someone, which you don't do).

I think it's generous. I have heard (Thankfully, haven't learned firsthand) but I have heard other soap boards aren't so generous...that they boot immediately, no explanations. So, I think it's really nice to be given another chance.

I was under the impression that being edited for posting a spoiler by accident was no biggie. I don't think you get booted off for that . It's when you do it deliberately and DO NOT list it as a spoiler, is a big NO NO.That could sink your boat with you in it.

I thought this was supposed to be a fun game. Too many rules for me!

Theory......
I think that even though Jack is very into janet, Carly is finally going to get him back. I'm saying it because i'm seeing that little twinkle in her eye, when she sees him again, and she's calling him every second again. I think it would be so annoying, I were Jack, but we'll see!

I know what you mean , if I have to stop and figure out if something is a Spoiler , theory , speculation , rumor or what ever , that takes the fun out of it .
Of course I would put spoiler , the rest of those is what bothers me.

I'm the one who asked what do you think will happen. To me that is a simple ?, My mom and I use to try to figure out what may happen and I missed it, I'm just going to comment here and there. I was shocked when it was canceled, and I'm glad to see other people knew waht I was trying to do. It was really nice of someone to add spoiler and even that was wrong.
