    When you constantly talk about how you just can't wait or talk about how they're going to be so mad you're tipping them off. Even worse when they talk about Robb and you say something along the lines of they're going to be pissed or need a tissue or something dumb like that you're spoiling.

    People aren't dumb. I had it figured that Robb was probably going to die in book 2 because he didn't have POVs. Dumb reasoning, but my point is people are going to put things together. Then instead of hoping Robb doesn't get got they;ll know he does and you'll be robbing them of the same experience (no pun intended.)

    The short of it is don't be selfish, let them read. Its gotten really bad lately.

    you should put in a bunch of '.................'s so people cant read the preview to this and see something about Robb. Otherwise, you're spoiling as much as everyone else.

    Agreed, people are stupid. Thats why I didn't read any thread until I was done with all 5 books.

    me too. Bottom line is people on the internet (and TMB) spoil stuff all the time on purpose or by accident. I decided I wanted to read the books so I pretty much avoided reading anything about the books until I finished besides posting in the book thread

    I didn't really pay attention but it seems I only remember people coming in with reaction gifs once the op reached that point.

    examples? the only one i see spoiling shit right now is you.

    What I've found in moderating this board is people just can't help but hint at shit to let everyone know that they have read the books and know more than showfags. Pisses me off, have deleted an untold amount of posts.
