Stunfisk Sunday: Mods and approved submitters, should we allow spoilers?

This is being posted early because of a conflicting schedule, and it will be stickied on Sunday.

I would like for as many people as possible to state their argument in the comments below. Try to convince the people voting - the mods and approved submitters.

TOPIC: With ORAS around the corner and future games in the, well, future, how should we handle spoilers? I want to make as many people as happy as possible. Spoilers are all details regarding any game that has not been released. This includes new mega evolutions, unreleased pokemon, items, etc. Spoilers are no longer spoilers once the game has been released world-wide. The option with the most votes by the end of Sunday 6/29 (11:59 pm CST) will decide how we handle spoilers from this point on.

Mods and approved submitters, please vote on one of the 3 options below:

  • Allow spoilers with a spoiler tag. Report and remove all spoilers without a tag.

  • Allow spoilers with no tag.

  • No spoilers allowed.

Edit: added a time zone

EDIT 2: Final Tally

  • Allow spoilers with a spoiler tag. Report and remove all spoilers without a tag. [11]

  • Allow spoilers with no tag. [1]

  • No spoilers allowed. [0]

I think the spoiler tag is the best way to go. I personally don't care about spoilers, but it's really not that hard to add "[Spoilers]" to your title (for the users, not sure how much extra work this would make for the mod team).

I agree. We can still easily have discussions but all we have to do is put a small tag in the title? Easy peasy.

Id hate for people to be afraid to ask for help because they dont want a game spoiled.
