PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
I'm sure this has been suggested before, but I think people were afraid of factions being formed between the non-spoiled vs. the thoroughly spoiled people.
In my opinion, this doesn't have to be the case at all. There shouldn't be warning signs for people to "Stay out! You have inside information!" If source-spoiled people can respect VerucaSalt's topic and "rephrase" their information to exclude source spoilers, why not in another thread--another exception thread, so to speak.
I'm sure that the current Vidcaps thread has people who are spoiled about the next episode, and that's fine. To me, they're not "playing dumb" or "playing along" or intentionally posting the wrong information to try and mislead. Posting "as if I didn't know" is different from posting "well, this is what I know so I'll post something completely opposite from it".
Mostly, though, my concern is this: will we have enough people to carry on a decent Speculations thread if none of the source-spoiled people decide to not participate? I know I probably won't be posting every single week.
