pretre Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Stupid Infinity War thread and the 'Unread Content' option on the site. So much for avoiding spoilers... 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Thanks for the warning, I often go that route when catching up here. Sorry it got spoiled for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burk Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 ok...so I use un-read and I only see the titles, not content. Perhaps you should try this. And even if you saw the preview...sheez man it only shows a sentence or two.....dont click in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first sentence of a post yesterday was something like 'Man it was crazy when X did Y to Z in the movie'. Example below: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burk Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 you should change your settings so you only see the title of the thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, Burk, I get that you're trying to help, but a couple things: 1) The damage is already done. 2) I don't wanna. I use unread all the frickin' time to stay up on what is happening here. Part of that is seeing what the posts are before I click them. 3) I'm not blaming people, as I have said in this thread. I am blaming the situation which includes everyone involved, including myself. Could I have stopped myself from seeing spoilers? Sure, if I had known ahead of time that they were going to be posted in a thread I could have changed my settings on Ordo so that I couldn't see them. I am probably going to have to do that in the future, so lesson learned. 4) The point of this post wasn't really to make people who are posting spoilers do anything different or to blame anyone. It was to vent my frustration and warn anyone else who might use that option that it was not safe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
