I can only think that to keep forum flowing n increasing...We ned to allow members to post as much as they can..so they dont feel restricted n nor they feel bad about it...Thy shud be felt welcomed n invited! n tats how discussions start ...
One thing can be done SPOILERS shuldnt hve the specific heading or briefing abt it...Tat way both the oarties r benefitted!!


Yes agree we can keep the Topic heading as Spoiler only

First and foremost most ppl don't look into sticky topics...So the spoiler thread can go unnoticed...

Secondly wen a new spoiler comes u have to wait for the spoiler topic creator to update the topic which is a slow process...And editing leads to the topic getting unstickied

Also...Most ppl visit forums for updates... This helps in the number of views...U stop having spoiler and update topics. .People stop visiting...

So in my opinion let people post whatever they want and keep the discussions flowing rather than imposing rules like this...

If someone doesn't like a spoiler... The person can refrain from opening that topic. ..I'm sure all topic creators are pretty clear in their headers wen they create a post

Hi Vandy..the issue in question was revealing the contents of the spoilers in the heading itself. Sure it adds to the excitement bit of it, it hampers the fun of those who are restraining themselves. If I open the forum (say to participate in discussions, read stories or post them etc.), despite not wanting to, I end up reading the heading. If people can be a little discreet when they post spoilers, it would be good.

its a disadvantage
there are so many who visit for spoilers , which counts for views
the issue with a thread is that if its not been updated on the topic u will have to go on checking all pages to find the spoiler
when a topic is edited it becomes non sticky will lost some where in the forum
most of the fans are unaware of the thread as well
when i logged in i was wondering why no posts

Agree with u Nishi.. this has never been a working solution in other forums as well...

plus ppl like to discuss a particular spoiler.. so a dedicated thread is must..

the only way it can work is to put a "spoiler tag, date, and relevant info" without revealing details.. 😳
