why not just read the spoilers just give in its unavoidable i read the script just made me want to play the game more


I'm old enough to understand that half the experience of gaming is being in the moment.. not knowing when the moment is going to happen.





it beats getting worked about it the only sure fire way to avoid spoilers is to avoid the internet completely

UGH.

No one is talking about these elusive "spoiler trolls". Hell, I've yet to see any of these trolls bent on spoiling me. pretty useless trolling in my opinion and I know a thing or two about trolling. Obviously nothing can be done about these type of trolls. That however is not my problem. I don't run into trolls trying to spoil me, I run into normal users spoiling who just aren't getting punished.

I am talking about the normal members that post spoils because they are not being held responsible for spoiling. Punish them, they will stop.


No it won't they will just spam the entire forum with spoilers in the title, easy. You are not worth trolling personally to think so is simple self aggrandisement. Ban people and some of them will troll the whole BSN out of spite.


People troll BSN anyways. With or without spite. What is your point?

"OH NO TROLLS". Listen, if it wasn't for trolls. Bsn would be a very very boring place.

People who post Spoilers however, are scum. They deserve death.

Well I enjoy posting on BSN. Now I have to stop because people are giants dicks? That doesn't seem fair.

Nor is that a good argument. I'm not asking for people to stop discussing the leaks. All I ask is that they use SPOILER TAGS. This can be done, people are just dicks.

That won't stop them.

There will always be trolls that will post spoilers without warning. The mods can do their best, but this is the internet. If you're not willing to take a breif hiatus from BSN then you're running the risk of spoilers.

I already know a fair chunk about the game, but after the demo I'm leaving BSN until I've played ME3. If you're that fussed about spoilers I'd recommend the same. If you really can't be away from BSN for a month and a half then thats up to you.


I'll repeat this for the last time. I am not stumbling into the small spoiler here and there. They are literally being tossed around like skittles. No one here cares about proper forum protocol. They continue to post spoils because they remain unchecked. I bet my ass if Mods started handing out bans for leaks, things would start changing.

A few spoilers here and there is understandable. What we have now is a complete disregard for rules.


Its a forum about a game, don't beat yourself up

Who in their right mind can do that?

If I ever meet someone with that willpower. they deserve to be President of the world.

I can't wait for the game to come out, and everyone realizes that the "leaked script" was just a rouse by Bioware to throw people off the real story's track.

FREAKIN' GENIUSES, THEY ARE!

Based on the contents of the leaks, I'll be more than happy to be suckered.

But so far, the leaks are consistent with every piece of official information.

Yes, because posting spoilers is a crime that equals to murder!

So trolls are okay, but posting spoilers in the deliberate attempt to get a reaction is not trolling. I'm not sure I see the distinction. It simply appears that you don't like the spoilers as to you it is essentially trolling the ME3 forums. Don't you like trolling when it's done to you?

I can't even scroll through this section anymore without running into spoilers. Just now. JUST THIS SECOND. Some **** (and he deserves every letter) posted a spoiler in the GOD DAMN TITLE.

I know half of you guys have read the leaks and half you guys want to discuss it. GOOD. USE SPOILER TAGS. THis is getting ridiculous . Not everyone wants to be spoiled to death just by reading a bloody topic title. I don't even know how its possible to spoil a game in  3 words but you guys have been doing it every day.


I think mods should start banning people over this. it's getting way out of hand.

Spoilers aren't against the rules. Site rules say nothing about Spoilers and the forum description clearly says:
This forum is for general discussion of Mass Effect 3. All Social Site members may create threads or take part in discussion. Please be aware that spoilers for Mass Effect or Mass Effect 2 may be discussed. 


spoilers having to do with the leaked script are not allowed.

They need to be punished if they are breaking the rules. I don't have to do anything to accommodate them. They are in the wrong. They are the vermin.  They deserve punishment.


Also, I'm not just stumbling into the odd spoiler here and there. They are freaking everywhere. People are being giant dipshts.

Just out of vague curiousity.... do you play as a Paragon or Renegade in ME?

If this is about the post referring to the VO BioWare Pulse...and talking about the certain event that made them cry three times over (supposedly), then I have to question what a spoiler is to you, as nothing was spoiled; as in, no specific details were given to spoil the experience. It would be like me saying it would happen in Saving Private Ryan. Of course it's going to happen, it's a war movie. There was no who, what, where, and when given in that video, so really, you don't know anything, which means you weren't spoiled.

Now, as far as your point goes, I agree. It sucks. We have a spoiler commiserating group so that we could post things there without risking the lockdowns that we were getting before and possible bans. However, not only are many not aware of the group, but people also can't help flaunting their knowledge on what happens to the point where they can't at least entertain the thought of you going along with the debate and pretending that it's just their theory or prediction without going into huge details. It's finally gotten to the point that the mods can't keep up with it anymore, and most of the long-time members on here who were against spoilers have given in, though many of them still try to avoid doing so if they can and usually don't get too detailed into it.

However, the game is on the brink of going gold, and the press event articles will be going up in the next two weeks, which will at least cover a large portion of the beginning of the game (GameInformer at least will cover that). BSN and every other site that could post on ME3 will be full of articles and comments about the game, and many will have spoilers.

My advice? Bookmark the Twitter Thread and the Mass Effect 3 News and Announcements forum. You may not be able to post new threads, but there won't be much in the way of spoilers. That's the best I can say this close to the game's launch.

Donnstar, it's your fault for being on this forum, hate spoilers? Get off then. There will always be muppets on this forum and you can't and never will be able to stop them. Deal with it and accept that it was you fault for being on this forum when the game is close to release. It has happened before and it will happen again, stop crying, your punishment is being here and the punishment will get more severe the closer the release date.

lol wut? That means...

Reapers = intergalactic killers

I agree with OP (actually made a similar thread a couple of weeks ago) but there's no way the BSN staff can patrol the boards 24/7.
