“Dr Deth, given your long-held and very public position on spoilers with this material, I find your behavior disingenuous in the extreme.”

This is a personal attack and a lie. I have NEVER been in favor of spoilers in GoT threads.In this case, the Thread Title said “SPOILERS!”.  
I have been in favor of discussing how the Screen version differs from the book version at that point in time. Just about my only post on the subject was pointing out that the Source material did not actually show the torture scenes, the actual scenes were only in the screen version.

That’s not a “spoiler”.

I understand, you have been taken in by the illiterates who can’t read the book, and thus have spread the lie that I want **Spoilers**. I have never wanted spoilers. Just a comparison on _material screened to date_. That’s not a ‘spoiler”. I also understand that I have been a bit of a gadfly on this issue, and thus people somehow think of me as one of those who spoiled or want to spoil the Show. This is not true.

Don’t get me wrong, I understand why **Gukumatz** puts rules in place. In the first GoT season, many people were posting book spoilers or vague spoiler-like things which alluded to future events. I am not happy with all the rules, but I am willing to live with them if spelled out. **Gukumatz** has done an excellent job of spelling those rules out.

Please note that I sent a PM/Report asking Twickster nicely to reword her post. I rcvd no reply.
