His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

What I can reveal was that Movies are slated to have a spoiler-free window of about two weeks, while Games will be closer to a month.
Because it's generally easier (and cheaper) to go see a movie than it is to purchase and play a game all the way through?
That, and I assume the window of availability that movies are in theaters for typically. You can buy brand new copies of games four months after release; you can see a movie in theaters for half that time period if you're lucky.

EDIT: Off the mark, but I'm headcanoning it.

Actually tbh I would argue that movie spoilers are worse than game spoilers

because in a games you're supposed to be playing

and unless it's set piece you can't spoil gameplay

but for mgs an exception was made by me because it's very story driven.

I'm glad that I don't follow MGS honestly.

That must be horrible.

Also, I remember posting the ODST campaign early before 9/22 on Bungie.

I got a 7 day ban for it, even right after I removed the video within the first post.

Lasted for 2 pages, got banned.

It was.

I haven't felt that bad in so long.

Eh, to be honest, right after Halo Reach came out, I actually want the story to be spoiled for me for future games because I want to know if it's going to be any good or not.

But I used to feel the same way you do with spoilers so I know how you feel man. So I wouldn't spoil anything for you.

I know you wouldn't. You're a decent human being, albeit, naive.

Gats is an ass.

I try to be decent. It sucks because I do the wrong thing when I find it justifiable. The Skype crash for instance.

I found out that Anon actually phrased me for that, but still. I didn't think it through and crashed Sep7agon's Skype group using a bug that was discovered to crash Skype. MS patched it within 24 hours though.

I WANT STAFF OUT OF THIS THREAD


REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEE

Ok, but seriously. All staff but Psy, Cheat and I need to stay out.


Sorry for the delay, but unfortunately real life isn't all video games and internet forums. I just got home from work like 30 minutes ago, Psy is either sleeping or at work, and Cheat is in the hospital.

Now, we can do one of two things.

A) Each one of you can do a single post in this thread about what you want to see changed.

or

B) I can sticky a new thread in Septagon where each one of you makes a single post regarding what you'd like to see changed.

I believe this will help cut down on the clusterfucking this thread seems to be engaged in.

Oh and I'm going to be honest. There are quite a few unrealistic expectations that I've read in here. That's ok though, it seems a few of you are pretty upset over your game being spoiled so the overreaction isn't anything out of the norm.

So all of us agree that the rules need to be applied more consistently. Everyone seems to be "for" increasing the length of punishments, but that varies anywhere from three days to a month. The topic of repeat offenders seems split between continuing the current progression (increasingly long ban times) and a permaban after x amount of bans (no decided number given, other than comparing it to baseball).

Overall, the rules need to be revisited on three accounts: consistency in application, consistency in severity of punishment, and finding other loop/holes that haven't been discovered yet.
This post seemed to be positively received, so I'll use it for my "one" post.

I think this outlines what I want rather nicely.

What'd you mean by special powers? What more can you do than edit, lock and ban?

Monitors can only do one of those things: Lock.

Special powers would be like extirpating unmarked spoiler posts.

Question: Would any of you mind if I separated your "one" response to my post into another thread and moved it into HQ so I can have all of them together neatly once everyone has finished giving their response?

Let's just go ahead and do this. This thread is a little too much of a clusterfuck already.

get out

You're going to have to say that again.

Like, consolidating our responses into a singular post in the HQ? Knock yourself out, whatever can be done to improve the forums.

You're going to have to say that again.

Basically I'd move each one of the "one" posts into a separate thread and then move that thread into the mod only board so I can have each and every one to look at in a neat and orderly row without having to flip between pages and posts.

I honestly wouldn't even allow mod discussion in the thread. If they want to discuss them that's fine, but they can do that in another one if they want. If they think it's too inconvenient then tough shit.

I saw it, unfortunately Cheat still hasn't made the bold bold enough so it's a bit hard to make out.
