Please consider the spoiler-phobes on your f-list and use a cut or a spoiler-tag when you post information about developments of any sort that will directly effect unaired episodes of any TV series.

These are things I love about you. ^_^ Especially because someday, I do intend to finish Supernatural...you know, after Fringe, and school ends, and all that.

Wow, that's . . . uncool. Some people just don't think before speaking, you know?

*cuts and tags spoilers six ways to Sunday*

If you're talking about what I posted yesterday - I did consider it, briefly, but it came down to spreading some very good news that the show's PR department issued press releases about (meaning, it's information they very much want the audience to be aware of), or continuing to wrap a very tiny percentage of the fandom in cotton wool.

Really, CK - I think it's kind of unrealistic to be on the Internet all the time and demand never to read *anything* that affects the show. We've chatted for a long time, and I think you're a cool, funny, interesting person. But I do think it's possible, sometimes, to demand too much of the Internet, and the rest of the fandom.

Just a thought.

Sorry for not getting back to you on this sooner, I just got back from work. Stupid 11 hour shifts.

This post was not directed at you personally, and I'm very sorry you felt that way. As far as your comm post goes, I've been spoiled far worse on a more regular basis by the spn_newsletter, and I haven't unfollowed that. ;-)

I posted because there have been several spoilers (ones that any spoiler-phobe would consider a spoiler) floating around recently in a few of the fandoms I follow, so I figured it was a good time for a general public service announcement about using cuts and spoiler tags.

Of course I am aware that my definition of spoiler is far more extreme than the majority, and I do avoid most fandom and media spaces because of it. I know expecting anything but basic consideration for things that are obviously spoilers is unrealistic, and I try to find ways to humor my spoiler-neuroses without kicking up a fuss at someone for revealing what colour paint will be used on the walls in the finale, etc. XD

Again, I apologize for any misunderstanding that may have caused you to feel personally hurt. I feel really horrible about that. :-/

You are my favourite kind of spoilerphile.

Aw, thanks! One of these days I'll no doubt watch Fringe, but not for a very long while.
