There's no proof at all for these leaks and it really makes the forum difficult and unpleasant to read.

Aren't there any moderators in this forum?

Yeh I agree, they're pretty much pointless

Under that logic, they should also ban links to tabloid articles

I agree to some extent- That was actually the point of the "2:30" Thread I posted if it is read in its entire.

My source within DS told me they had a meeting last week about this very subject. The staff put it to the vote and 47% were against voting leak spoilers and 53% were for them.

And before anyone says: "Don't read them then!":
A - Sometimes I can't help myself And when I read them, it ruins my whole day sometimes
B - People clog up every thread with them, sometimes without putting spoiler tags on them, when the thread doesn't have a spoiler warning either

Why though? There's lots of stuff you could say they should ban.

Like it or not a 'voting leak' is legitimate topic for discussion (more so than some other threads) so the mods won't ban it.

What I don't understand is people who complain about threads they don't like (I don't mean that in a nasty way OP ).

I don't believe the spoiler threads...hence I don't comment and rarely read them...apart from for comedy value.

There's only a few on the front page so why not just ignore them? People should be free to discuss whatever they want...no one is dragging anyone else kicking and screaming into a thread

I agree. Although I don't want to straight out deny the credibility of those voting leak providers since I don't know them personally, these influx of voting leaks threads needs to be moderated. There is a chance where someone takes advantage of the popularity of this forum to spread false and baseless rumor to play mind games at the voters.

They're all ridiculous, the majority of viewers will vote during tonights show so they're completely invalid.

They are opinions just like everything else on here, lots of things claim to be facts, but obviously aren`t...Like all the so called leaks that now have the voting order as 1D, Rebecca, Matt....Strangely the order they were callled out last in "no particular order".

If reading some mindless opinion on a forum can "ruin your whole day", I would suggest you stay away from forums.
