About spoilers. Read before posting! - Updated 070331

[Thomas]

If you post anything that might spoil the experience for any other user like: story specifics, events, etc the spoiler tag must be used. To use it simply use the following bb code:

Code: (Select All)

[spoiler]This is my spoilerish text[/spoiler]

which will create the following:

Spoiler below!

This is my spoilerish text

Also refrain from having spoilers in the topic name, for example:
1) "Was the evil prince really a toad like the ending shows?"
2) "Man, your friend turning into a three-headed beast was really awesome!"

Instead word it like this:
1) "Question on ending"
2) "The thing that happened to your friend - wasn't it awesome?"

Please follow these simple rules and I am sure this forum will be an even more pleasant place to dwell

UPDATE:
There is no need to make entire threads with spoiler tags or use it all the time. If the thread is a about a certain puzzle, then info regarding this puzzle does not need to be in tags.

So use the tags when you think your information might spoil the game for someone who unkowingly happen to read it. However if the thread is already about a spoilerish subject, no things regarding that subject need to be spoiler-tagged.

Just clearing things up

Spoiler below!

WOW i like this is awesome
BTW so any thing with spoiler have to be here in this section of the forum what about the current ones should they be moved here?

It depends on the topic, as long as all gameplay related issues are in this forum, for example "How do I get past the evil rabbit?", all is fine.

Also using the spoiler tag in other forums is a good thing to do if something is a spoiler.

Given that this is a hints folder - could the rule just be 'Don't put spoilers in the thread titles'. Because every single post in every thread is full of these spoiler boxes and it makes it annoying to read.

I think the spoiler boxes are useful for the rest of the forum, but I think in this section they could be viewed a little differently.

[Thomas]

The above are simply guidelines, so do not use them if you think it does not apply to the situation.

If yu do not feel like it is worth using the spoiler tags simply refrain from it.

I think the most imporant thing is not spoiling through the thread titles.

Anways, just try to be nice to other people here and we all should be happy and jolly
