With the film, officially, opening tomorrow - could I request that for the time being, all MAJOR SPOILERS are kept in spoiler tags. Members like Gerard 123 are already posting major plot points unhidden, and the film isn't even on general release yet!

Remember, some members wont get to see the film for a few weeks yet.

Absolutely seconded. I'd like to think that anyone going out of their way to purposely ruin the movie for others before they get a chance to see it will be dealt with by the board moderators. We've all had a good run with keeping spoiler discussion under control. Let's not blow it now.

He's at it again..he just posted in the Eve (potential spoilers) thread without putting spoiler tags...frustrating! If this guy continues to do so, I think a possible suspension or banning from CBn would be warranted...

I've put in a good word...

In the meantime, if people want to avoid major spoilers, please steer clear of the following threads:
- M's Future
- Meet the new Bond girls
- Eve
- What are Silva's motives?

I agree, I'm glad someone said something I read one of Gerard 123's posts and kind of wish I didn't. With the different release dates I was worried that we North Americans might have to completely avoid the forums.

I've sent Dustin a PM requesting an official warning. I don't want to make this thread specifically about Gerard 123, but the fact that he is still excessively using the enter key despite repeated requests from other members not to shows that he is doing it all on purpose.

Thanks Jim. I think the reasoning behind this thread should still stand - All major spoilers, until the film has been on general release in all countries for a few weeks at least, should be in SPOILER TAGS!

You don't mess with Jim.

I think this topic deserves a pin.

If we wait for Australia, we'll be spoiler-tagging until December. I'm happy to do it, but it seems kind of futile. Don't you figure all the beans will be spilled by early November?

How bout we just do it till the US release date. Seems by then it will be out most everywhere. And the handful of members we have from the territories it's not out yet, can just avoid this forum altogether.

If Australians can avoid the forums for three weeks, why can't Americans avoid the forums for two? If someone values the element of surprise, that person needs to take the initiative.

OK, then just hide major spoilers in the spoiler tags until December.

Problem solved.
