How To Do Spoiler Alerts - Or More Accurately How N O T To Do Them ...

[sunny-dave]

What you DON'T do is put the actual spoiler in the original post ie here.

It is so very easy to accidentally see the original post when looking at the front page of AB in general or any specific topic.

You put something really anodyne here, "spoiler follows" say, and then post the real spoiler detail in a reply to your own post.

So the "Strictly Results" or "Dead Character" stuff needs to be here ...

... OK ??

I can't understand why people want to know beforehand.

In fairness some "spoilers" are so well known in general that perhaps avoiding the detail is all that's needed ?

[ummmm]

Agree O_G....but that's when it comes to soaps...

[AB Editor]

Maybe we need a spoiler tag for media-related sections?
