Topics that Include Spoilers

Post by onthepequod »

I am relatively new to this forum but as a “newbie” I would like to express my desire not to see spoilers included in topics (i.e the topic “Yoshimo’s __________!!!&#8221 ;) . I realized that I am just a new member and I do not presume to tell any of the regulars or any moderator how to run or post on your forum. I am just requesting that for future reference, could you please refrain from posting potential spoilers in your topic. It ruins part of the game for those of us who haven’t gotten that far yet.

Well usually people put a notice about there being a spoiler in the topic or question its self. Newer people I guess don't realize this but ah it probably won't happen again.

Onthepequod,
why you are reading any forums? If you do not want any information and if you want to learn everything the hard way, please disconnect from the internet. And do not even start any game - everytime you get some information you spoil the game beyond repair. Naturally, do not read any computer magazines (harm! harm! HARM!!).
Sorry to be so rude but the forums are here for exchanging information - not for assuring ourselves that the game is good, that Jaheira is nice and that Minsc's dialouges are funny. What happens if you know that Joshimo is a traitor? Does it prevent you from taking him into Asylum and see what happens? What happens if you get any other piece of information? How does it spoil your game? And how can information spoil anything?
I think it's YOU who is playing the game and that it's OTHER people with different play styles and different preferences that are posting information on the forums. You can accept some information because it fits your style, you can update other pieces of information to your style and you will probably ignore the most of information because it does not suit you. You can try something unrecommended to see whether the posting guy is correct. You can do what you want no matter what is posted somewhere. When you finish your game you will see that that's you who have developed your strategy and tactics - not somebody else.
Therefore, don't be afraid of information. It is harmless. It can be used. It can be rejected. It can be ignored. It depends on you how information will be used.
