So here you are, despite headers, warnings in both topic and post, to read a "spoiler" about Throne of Bhaal which none have played (programmers aside). Someone gave a poor guy a hard time the other day for posting info the other day on a game that is not even out.. Archaeon I think. If you haven't played it, and you don't want to be spoiled, why are you reading? Tonight I read a post by Damark Ifrit, a new guy, and he labeled his post "After Hell". Now ANYONE who has made it past Hell knows about the stuff he brought up. Yet people were complaining that he was "spoiling" them. Here's a big hint to all reading about spoilers. IF YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE TOPIC IS ABOUT, IT IS LIKELY TO COME UP LATER IN THE GAME AND YOU WILL POSSIBLY KNOW THE SOLUTION IF YOU CLICK ON THE TOPIC AND READ IT AT THIS TIME! If you think the title "After Hell" is a spoiler in itself, reavealing that there is indeed a "Hell", what about the "Fiirkrag" and "Underdark" posts? You mean there is an Underdark? Damn, I'm spoiled now!
This is a game forum, one that I found with a search engine ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR ANSWERS. And are the answers ever here! I can appreciate the concern about spoilers in titles, and when revealed off topic further down the post, but it's getting to be like:

The new game is in a green box, and *you* are still the main character
I mean, what is the point? I've been spoiled myself at times, but it's because I've poked my head where I shouldn't have, not because I'm reading someones post about a completely unfamiliar topic and HOW DARE THEY not give me a warning in the title of the post that someone else might reply to their question which possibly could reveal the answer to the question asked in the
title of the post!
If the post is called "where are the gauntlets of..." then one should expect that when they read the post, the answer WILL PROBABLY BE REVEALED.
Okay, end of my rant. And now for the apologies. I'm not attacking anyone personally on the board, nay I have the highest respect for all of you (except one, who I won't mention). And to Memnoch especially, I have deep admiration of your moderatorship, and think you are doing great! I do not intend this to be a counter or rebuttal of your recent reminder of spoiler posts, nor do I encourage anyone to spoil others. I merely imply that the readers should take responsibility for spoiling themselves when viewing a topic. Aside from the impending attacks/ defenses that shall be hurled at me, do any others have a similar opinion(keeping you reading to what you know if you don't want to know)?
