Hi,

There have been a number of problems and confusion regarding the appropriate place to post spoilers in this forum. Here are some general guidelines:

• Before participating in a thread discussing a particular show, check two pieces of information: the PACE of the thread (usually the channel on which it is being shown) and whether it is NON-SPOILER or SPOILERS PERMITTED.

• For example, posting information about an episode of Lost that aired on ABC but has not yet aired on Channel 4 would not be appropriate in a thread marked "Lost - Channel 4 - No Spoilers," because such discussion would constitute spoiler material for Channel 4 viewers.

• Posting spoiler material in an inappropriate thread is regarded as disruptive and dealt with accordingly (usually in the form of a temporary ban or, if it happens repeatedly, a permanent ban). This may seem draconian but the posting of spoilers in inappropriate locations can spoil the enjoyment of a programme for a large number of people.
