[Warning Possible Spoilers] Force Awakens discussion (Post viewing) (Warning Spoilers)

Given the "post preview" thing you mention Edan, I think this thread becomes quite problematic. Sure, we know about it... will a new member? Will they bother reading the thread before replying? IDK...

Given most people haven't even had a chance to watch the film I'd suggest this thread should be kept spoiler free.

Relax, it wasn't a permanent ban discussed...

Just use the

See the post preview for the reason I didn't suggest that.

And yes, certain two-word spoilers about this film could totally ruin key moments, one key plot moment in particular where you're not supposed to know (and can only guess) how it's going to transpire.

A poor choice of words, especially when we have an influx of new members, not all of which are fluent in english...

I just don't see a good reason to discuss it with spoilers until at least the majority of members have had an opportunity to see it.

I do not feel it is a poor choice of words at all. The Spoiler tag quite noticeably says "Warning! Spoilers!" I am quite positive that even new members who managed to make it this far on an dominate english website will be able to understand "Warning! Spoilers!"

But. I have said my peace. Do as you wish, I just feel it is rude to expect people to not say anything when they are just as excited to talk about it as people are to see it. I feel the Spoiler Tags is a fair option to apply for everyone.

Even though despite using spoiler tags, that would leave unhidden content about the movie on every single page of the site?

Consider it a lesson in patience..

Stu also made a very valid point, that's reason enough for people to wait...

Aghh this thread has been hijacked. Such a shame

I would have liked to have discussed it. I guess I'll back away from this forum for a while.
