Spoilers in thread titles

**elipson** · Posted On: 6/08/2008 1:24pm

WTF is it with people lately?

Have they all gotten fucking dumber?

This now makes the last two ufcs and a TUF episode that were spoiled in thread titles.

NEWS FLASH ASSHOLES: Some of us don't get to watch the fights LIVE!!!

Isn't this a bannable offense?

If it's not it sure as hell should be.

I second this motion for making spoiling fights a bannable offense. Normally I just buy the PPV, but this was too shitty a card and I live on the west coast anyway, so I won't be watching it live even if I do buy it.

I always avoid all forums until I get to see the fights. I don't see why I should be reading a live MMA forum on MMA news and then I bitch when something is spoiled because I didn't watch it yet. I don't go writing angry letters after watching CNN because they announced election results.

I propose new rule. Bitching about spoilers in an MMA fight discussion forum should be a bannable offense.

Dude, its the god damned THREAD TITLES.

If it's inside the thread its fair game, but the thread title? Come on man!

So no one would mind if I got live results from Sherdog and created a thread for each fight annoucing the winner?

If I missed the event I wouldn't see it as I avoid all contact with forums until I do.

You could avoid the thread entirely, unless you accidentally read it. But yeah, I don't see any harm in a title that reads "Fedor Emelianenko vs Randy Couture (results inside)," though I imagine that that particular title would be like giving someone the holy grail and expecting them not to drink from it.

In the end, freedom of speech is just that, and you now what might be in this forum if you jump into it.

That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about threads that have titles like 'Wow, Couture really kicked Fedor's ass!'
