When an OP says (spoilers) in the title, that usually means that his message contains potential spoilers, as thecarrotdude's does: The details of the Chapter 6 Bodhi encounter with certain Aerie-related complications. If the OP wants to be spoiled, they will usually say things like "What do I do now? I don't mind spoilers," or even "go ahead & spoil me."

But thank you for deleting your own message instead of letting a moderator do it--I think that shows maturity. I was half afraid that you would snap back at me for being an anal-retentive prig. But happily, this thread can remain relatively drama-free.

Feel free to answer thecarrotdude again (particularly as I tend to be overly careful about spoilers, and perhaps too stingy with my answers as a result, so he'll probably want a second opinion). As long as you only provide direct answers to questions that the original poster actually asked, and you restrain yourself to oblique hints (that strongly resemble general good advice) for any related difficulties that the OP will certainly encounter, you pretty much can't go wrong.
