The only thing I can think of that would definitely be worse is if you were doxxed--but if you were doxxed, 99.99% of the time, it could have been prevented anyway. Usually, you have to actually give someone a little bit of leeway--posting a picture of yourself, giving your real name, revealing your location, etc.If you don't want to run the risk of getting doxxed, don't post any personal information, or dox yourself. Because you have a greater chance of being killed by a terrorist in the US than you have of being hunted by some Internet predator.Choosing not to post personal information only compromises your forum experience by a small amount.Choosing to go dark (the only way to guarantee you won't be spoiled) is, obviously, a big compromise.What else is there? Harassment? Harassment may arguably be worse, depending on the severity and the circumstances, except there are tools on most well-designed websites that allow you to block or ignore any individuals who are making you uncomfortable. This also serves as a corollary to the personal info bit I mentioned earlier. If you have any reason to suspect that someone might be after you, there's things you can do about that that won't compromise your forum-going experience.Now, those two things aside, I'd have to agree with Snake that posting spoilers really is the worst thing you could do to someone on the Internet.Is it the worst thing you could to do someone in person? Of course not.But on the Internet... there's really not a whole lot else you can do to hurt people.
Being a mod seems tough.

Looking back I'm sort of glad I didn't get the position.

genuinely curious to know who ended up being chosen

Hopefully it's not another "hey look popular user, get in the staff" or another "X staff member gets their personal choice instituted as a mod v3.0".

But if you want to call it failing then that's up to you. Looking back I'm sort of glad I didn't get the position. It taught me useful lessons and allowed me the time away from the site to put things in perspective.
