Okay yeah but that's the point. It isn't a spoiler, unless you consider it a spoiler of a four year old comic.
yes

that's a spoiler

especially given that the TV show is, you know, an adaptation of this comic

it doesn't matter if they're only loosely connected, it was just an inconsiderate thing to title the thread

OP isn't talking about the comic. This is about the show. The title didn't spoil anything. It was a happy coincidence that they remained true to the comic in the show.

Again, it was made well before the show started. I didn't know, Das didn't know, etc. The joke was that fans would be worried they were spoiled, see the post in the thread, and then leave (or discuss the show as they watched it). Hell, I didn't even spoil it for myself because I stopped reading the (clearly labeled) thread after the episode started.

That would imply that anyone in this site is considerate.

and it had the adverse effect of spoiling the plot for somebody, because it ended up being true

because why would a major character's death not be covered in its adaptation

it was a dumb joke and a bad idea just own up to it

Thread content: "Glenn dies in the comics"

The fact that this statement is true does not spoil the show. Not to mention that what's specifically being referenced is the edited "Glenn dies...in the comics" title, which is even more obvious. Really, the only way the episode could have been spoiled by my thread is if someone opened the thread and scrolled past several posts.

right

so if you had never read the harry potter books and just started watching the movies and were super into them, would it be okay with you if i just said prior to you watching half-blood prince that "snape kills dumbledore in the book--let's see if it happens in the movie!"

would you be okay with that

let's be generous and say that the harry potter movies were filmed far less faithfully than they were, too

would that be good

Changing the thread title after the episode aired can actually make it worse because if you saw that title and then see it changed you might infer the character does indeed die in the show.

I agree, which is why I didn't. It was originally edited by a mod.

Yes, because the books are extremely popular and their plots are well known. In fact, the "Snape killed Dumbledore" meme originated long before the movie released.

let's say it wasn't and let's say it didn't

because obviously, no one fucking reads the dumbass walking dead comic, they just watch the dumbass show

to speed things up: no, you wouldn't be okay with that, because you're not an idiot

so why is it okay with the walking dead

this is also where you're wrong

it's not about the comic or the show--it's about the story

and if anything spoiler-y happens in the comic that could happen in the show, it shouldn't be talked about--period, especially just before the coinciding moment

It's so easy not to get spoiled though, like Holy Shit. When FFXV and Shin-Eva comes out I'll just unplug my internet until play/watch them.

I've never gotten spoiled for anything I really care about.

I posted a nondescript opinion of an event that had been talked about a lot in the pre release coverage and people sperged out.

Goots thought they were dumb and decided to give them something real to sperg about so he posted an actual spoiler in picture form in the thread.

Spoiler
My nondescript opinion was "i think [x event] is dumb"
