Why cant I double or triple spoiler these things? For example
DO NOT LOOK IF YOU REALLY WANT TO GET THE PLOT ALL SPILLED OUT
=<SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER>=
=<SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER><SPOILER>=
Note: That thing is a spoiler a also big spoiler so don't look at it

Nice.... Anyways, I don't think spoilers are a bad thing (not unless you actually give out the entire thing like details and stuff). So what if I read them and I'm not piss or mad like the others are, I'm rather glad so that I don't have like worry much about what might happen next and wait a week to read it.

Why do you keep posting spoilers anyway? No one, except the translaters and those who own the books, have read past the translated part. It's not like you're discussing the book with anyone. You're just annoying the other readers who are paitently awaiting each installment. If you aren't going to have a real discussion about the book, then plrease stop it.
Make a thread if you want to talk about it. Put proper tags on it, so someone who does want to know the end yet doesn't click on it. (btw quoting causes the spoiler tag to be revealed)
My question to you is: Are you just doing this to be rude? If so, then 4chan is that way ->

Was answered:But the thing is guest, when you see something that says
[-spoiler tag-]
You should automaticly know that this is a spoiler, if it's a hint, maybe I should also put a spoiler on it for people who hasn't yet completed the volume. But the thing is guest, it says <<<SPOILER>>>
No one expects a spoiler for non-translated stuff to be posted. We all thought "Hey maybe you caught a translated hint we might have missed!"

No point in criticising Guest lol, he put it in spoiler tags. We were the morons unable to resist clicking.
I look upon this whole experience as a salutory lesson. We must resist spoiler tags. We must resist!
But in our defence, most times when you click on a spoiler tag you don't expect to find a one sentence summary that gives away the entire book/movie. Normally we learn things like Lorelai Gilmore will sleep with Christopher and break up with Luke. We don't expect to find out that Bruce Willis was actually a ghost, or that Kevin Spacey was Keyser Söze.
So we've learnt our lesson. We must not become complacent about spoilers.

Too bad that I'm too curious to repress my instincts

I agree with this,you should write some extra warnings to tell people you're going to post non-translated stuff.I have read all other spoiler tags when I finish the translated parts about that thread-and guess what:no one has ever did something like that.We should be more thoughtful of each other and i don't think being bored is an excuse to spoil other peoples fun.Anonymous wrote:Then don't post spoilers. You hated it when someone spoiled part of the book for you. Think of how you felt when it happened to you.Guest lol wrote:Hahaha! Feel my spoilerness wrath! Rawr rawr rawr rawr! But cube, you ruined the theory that I was going around lying, lol. Now people can't believe that I was lying xD

As short:if anybody is going to spoil non-translated parts,warn people that you're going to write them.Putting a spoiler tag is generally used within the limits of traslated parts,so people who don't expect non-translated parts could be VERY sorry(including myself) when they lose something that they care about.
