With the upcoming fall lineup of new releases, and after several recent problems regarding spoilers being shared without warning, the Sep7agon site staff is implementing a new Spoiler Policy, which goes into effect immediately. This information is also located in the rules thread, over in the News forum. It is being reposted in The Flood and Gaming, due to some members failing to see the update.

The new policy, which will cover movies, television series, and video games, aims to help define what the staff considers a spoiler, and how we hope to prevent spoiler leaks on our forums. Details of the policy are below:

---

1. What Counts as a Spoiler on Sep7agon?

• Content that qualifies as a spoiler includes, but is not exclusively limited to, storyline elements that are integral to the plot, endgame content, & sequel discussion.
• Discussion of a media's music choice, art direction, etc. are allowed, but kindly take other member's viewing experience into thought before doing so.
• To use Halo 4 as an example: Discussing the fact that Halsey betrayed the UNSC would qualify as a spoiler; Meanwhile, discussing that you can drive a Mantis on Mission 6 does not.

2. Our New Sep7agon Spoiler Policy

• Threads created with the sole objective of discussing spoilers must be clearly marked as such in the title, either by manually stating that spoilers are allowed, or using the upcoming "Thread Tag" that Cheat implemented.
• Spoilers in any general discussion thread not dedicated to spoilers must be placed & marked in a spoiler box.
• This spoiler policy will apply to Movies and Television Series for a period of two weeks following it's release.
• Meanwhile, this policy will apply to Video Games for a period of one month following it's release.

3. Disclaimer from the Staff

• Disclaimer: As a site staff, we cannot 100% guarantee that spoilers for your media preference will not leak in some manner on our site forums or private messages, or on any other site. As a media consumer heading into the busy Holiday season, please use common sense when browsing online communities if you wish to have your experience as pristine as possible.

John dies at the end

Mod note: This is not a real spoiler. Franky confirmed months ago that the Chief does not die in Halo 5 because he's a main character in Halo 6.

I think he was referencing the book elsie.
