Sooooo. Are spoilers worth getting upset over? Should people who put spoilers up (whether true or false) in a thread without first warning that they're spoilers to that book get in trouble? Should the decision to punish be decided on the book?
Discuss :) |

Don't have much time, but an element worthy of being discussed here is when a spoiler turns out to be false.
Does the spoiler being false negate one's emotion when a spoiler is presented to them, before being proven false? Is the insult (for lack of a better word. I'm sure there is a more suitable way of putting it) no longer an insult? The idea of intent. How does that factor in? Obviously intent is a tricky and subjective thing to look at, because I'm sure all of us have failed Mind Reading 101 at one point or another. |
