> [@kaylasdad99](#): > > Uhh, thanks, but I still don’t know what movie he spoilered. A little help, please? It was Star Wars: The Force Awakens. He casually mentioned without spoiler boxes that: Someone died. I pretty much guessed that from the get go. 😃 I do not remember what the thread was called. There’s too many SW:TFA threads. ---

Pffft. I got that much from the plot summary in the wikipedia article. A spoiler would have been that the villain was a mewling, weenie who it was impossible to take seriously. ETA: Thank you, though. ---

> [@John\_Mace](#): > > Your on your own now, _amigo_. I was trying to help you out… Well ya gotta do what you gotta do 🙂 But thanks for the effort… I’m too busy here right now to do a decent response to this situation (as opposed to the Situation Jersey guy). First, let me say at some points in this thread I’ve been EXTRA bitchy. My sad excuse is that I was/am dealing with some shit in real life I’d rather not be doing. Don’t get me wrong it’s not like toenail cancer or something serious…it is just a thing that I have NEARLY zero tolerance for anymore due to a variety of reasons… I know when I get REALLY mad about something in real life…that at that point it is NOT the time to get mad on the Dope about something. I am starting to get that now. On the other hand…what I am pissed about can be defended IMO. And this IS the PIT…so screw whoever needs screwing… PS. I realized a serious possible disconnect regarding the whole spoilery post thingy…will have to post later about it… ---

This is an _un_popularity contest thread, then? I would only be willing to nominate somebody who I had put on ‘ignore’, but since that list isn’t populated, I’ll have to be content to just watch this train wreck from the sidelines. With any luck, it will evolve into a humorous fifty-pager and not a hate fest. ---

So far the only person to seriously nominate anyone has been heaped with abuse. Not much incentive there to play along. ---

> [@dropzone](#): > > Why? And don’t give childish reasons like, “He made me read spoilers for a movie,” which is a stupid fucking reason for a ban. Make a case with evidence, as I said in the OP. I have a serious/honest question for you. There is no “gotcha” here. Did you read the thread in question? Yes/no. Secondly and much more importantly. Rigamarole dropped a major spoiler there IMO. But here is the important question. Do you think I was reading the thread and at some point read a major spoiler? Or do you think I saw a spoiler and read it? Honest. There is a subtle and important distinction here. ---

IIRC, the thread was about someone else complaining about a family member spoiling the movie for her. I usually avoid threads in which people bitch about their families, and I had no desire to see the movie. 2. The former. However, I find it best, if one doesn’t want to risk being spoiled, to avoid all discussions, reviews, etc. You took a chance and lost. Apparently **Rigamarole** acted like a jerk. He/she should be chastened for it, but it does not rise to a banning offense. We need some standards before we come to a consensus that a user should be banned, and maybe some will come out of this thread. Or it will be amusing. Works for me either way. ---

I seriously asked those questions because there IS a gotcha. Not a personal/poster gotcha but a “board” gotcha as it were. But since YOU answered in the negative that possible point is mute. Back the point of the spoiler. So, if I dress nice and “flash” a bit of cash around…and I get robbed…its MY fault that I get robbed in the back alley and NOT so much the punk assed bitches that robbed me? PS. I would like to hear any other posters answer to my question. Seriously. Duble PS. I see you did NOT actually read the thread so I don’t know how you can be bitching so much about my bitching… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-death-panel/747312.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-death-panel/747312.md?page=4)
