    I've just read in the charter that we should be using spoilers as not everyone wants to have the plot given out.

    But for some reason that what we seem to do when we speak about soaps, most magazine publish wants ahead anyway, so its no great secret in posting up what we know will occur down the line.

    So, Mods, is it neccessary for us to use spoilers? Which can be read anyway?

    Why shouldn't spoilers be used? Its not very fair if they aren't cos some people don't read tabloids and soap mags.
    Is it too much trouble for you and the other big blabbers to use spoiler tags..

    I'd prefer if Spoiler tags are used unless there is a "[Contains Spoilers]", in the thread title.

    That tends to keep everyone happy. (If that is ever possible) :rolleyes: :D
