What Happened to Putting the spoilers in the July Thread??

I thought all spoilers went into a thread for that Month...

Also, if it hasn't happened on TV - It is a spoiler. Not not put it in a thead if it has not happened. Do not put it in a thread that is not labeled SPOILER.

One more thing - don't put the spoiler message in the title.

Thanks.

Thanks you TS! I thought I was the only one that thought that there was a thread started to post spoilers and then a separate thread to discuss it. Unfortunately almost all I see on the first page is spoiler threads. As a spoiler free poster, it makes it difficult to enjoy this site when there are too many threads having to do with spoilers OR when they are posted in regular threads.

I would also like to remind people not to post spoilers in the thread titles.

THANK YOU. It makes it enjoyable for all this way.

Nope you aren't the only ones who feel this way! This board use to be "organized", but now spoilers are everywhere and multiple topics of one person everywhere also...Peggy

You are right, this used to be the organized thread.

Now it is worse than Y&R (which I have quit writing in as it has 10 threads on same subject.)

Please mods, get us back on track.

Thanks.

I think the mods do a good job at keeping everything in good shape. They have lives too!

Peggy, I do believe you just put a spoiler in your post about Logan in the New Dr. thread!

everyone makes mistakes sometimes.

To be fair, you can only make a mistake about posting a spoiler in a regular thread if you know spoilers. I have been spoiler free for about 7 months now and I would challenge anyone to find where I have made a mistake.

The problem isn't that it happens now and again. The problem is that it happens all the time and the fact that other people are not respectful and do not delete their posts after being asked to.

When the mods are online they do a fairly good job of catching the problem. I am not sure how many mods are on the west coast because more problems seem to occur later at night.

But also it is not only the responsibility of the mods. This is something that all posters should try to remember to do. It is not that is just courtesy to other posters that are spoiler free but it is a rule on this board. It would be appreciated that it is followed.

I am not directing this at anyone in particular. Please don't get me wrong. Like I said I have been limiting my whereabouts on this site because I don't want to read spoilers. But from what I can understand they are running crazy again and at some point I would like to be able to go into threads here again and not worry that I am going to read a spoiler.

Shelrick, I do feel for you because I would be peeved if I was spoiler free they are all over the board right now!

I was only trying to say that sometimes people do make mistakes, and forget that some posters are spoiler free.
For your sake and the rest of the other posters that are spoiler free I hope they respect you and remember not to post spoilers.

Thank you, jnlforever! Actually I think for the most part most posters are very respectful. There are people that you wouldn't know read spoilers unless you were in the spoiler threads or they tell you they read them. I do understand that people make mistakes. And when you see someone who does that, a nice reminder to delete it is usually enough for them to be respectful, delete the spoiler and everyone moves on. It is the others that I am really speaking to.

I had an experience not too long ago where several people asked a poster to remove a spoiler and they literally responded with "whatever" and/or " " which I found very disrespectful and that is the type of behavior I am referring to in general.

I didn't want you to think that I was directing ANY of comments at you because honestly I can't say I have seen you post a spoiler in a regular thread. I was getting to leave work but I hope that we will be able to post together in the future.

ITA, If I want to read a spoiler I go to the spoiler thread, but lately almost every thread I go into has a spoiler listed, and it is very annoying and frustrating if you are trying to stay spoiler free.
