    Amen. I hope for a new poster that spills it a little more obviously soon.

    Yes... it is rather annoying. And I've probably let it slip before now as well. I just gotta make sure I don't be a hypocrite if I have to step in when someone crosses the line with spoilers.
    Fortunately I post about half of the news here, so I can set a good example with this until people get the hang of it.
    At least it shouldn't be for very long... but should prevent too many complaints about spoilers if I don't set some boundaries early.

    I figure it is just easier to moderate if we hide anything that isn't officially released, than try to determine what elements cross the line of "spoiler"... especially in topics that aren't as frequently monitored.

    Also, just be careful of quoting white text, as it will then show up the text in the quote box. If you need to quote, just delete the white spoiler bit.

    It's a pretty sensible place to draw a line in the sand. Once the studio has it out by their choice, I think it's fair game. Frankly, after the last two films, I couldn't care less about #4, but dug the ride, and to each their own. Anyone more sensitive to that should black themselves out to their desire. God knows I used to avoid the internet on Oscar day like crazy in my uni days!

    Hmm... on my monitor, it's only slightly more visible than your original post - perhaps comes down to monitor settings?

    Now that Dinosaurs were shown off in the teaser trailer, I've unhidden it. (and added Grimlock's name to the character list, as it should be obvious from the trailer now)
