Preemptive strike: Spoiler policy.

[feliciakw]

I'm not scolding anyone. This is just a preemptive strike.

I am allergic to spoilers. If I don't mention as knowing it, assume I don't know it, and please don't say anything.

I did not recognize a certain guest character in the recently posted clip. Maybe I should have--in fact, yeah. She was right there in front of me. Duh--but I didn't.

In this particular instance, it was a matter of misunderstanding and miscommunication. It was assumed I picked up on something in the trailer that I didn't because I was so freaked out about something else entirely.

I just wanted to point out that I am adverse to spoilers.

You might also notice that from time to time, I'll put what once upon a time was called "spoiler space" in my comments. This alerts the person that there are potential spoilers in the comment, since we can't put spoiler cuts in comments.

If I run across a spoiler in someone else's LJ, that's my own fault for reading. However, if I find spoilers in the comment threads of my own LJ, I'm going to be sorely disappointed.

So, please. I've never had to come up with official policies for anything before. Just be aware.

Thank you, and have a nice day.
