    Right! That was over a fricken year ago and there was a damn thread about it. I am not copping it for that !

    Here's another spoiler - Optimus dies in the 86 movie and Transformers turn into vehicles, weaponry and machinery to be in disguise

    Well what's the bloody time rule/limit here? When is the swap over point between 'spoiler' and 'old news'? I'm usually at least a few months behind everyone else comics wise so I figure if I know it it must be old news. It's not like that thread talking about the Blank/blank love affair that got put up while that issue was still on the stands. I didn't know anything about it and had to find out that way but I just bit the bullet

    Right. Excellent. Thank you

    Now all I have to do is remember over all the various TF comic series, cartoons and movies which events are at least 12 months old and which aren't - too easy

    Mine obviously wasn't serious... hence the at the end.

    Anything older than a year "shouldn't" need spoiler protection... if you are that far behind with comics or cartoons, it shouldn't be everyone else's problem.

    (Should it be necessary to note that sort of rough cut-off in the Userguide for all plot elements that are in a related-but-different topic, or should it be left to people to give a reasonable assessment of what might be a spoiler based on the circumstances?)

    Yeah, I know you and Trent were havin a laugh but I was genuinely serious about wondering about the statute of limitations on plot points.

    I dunno, this is prob for me personally maybe only the 3rd or 4th time I've unintentionally given away a spoiler (and prob the least significant plot point) on this site and sometimes I've though it would be good to have a rough guide of what constitutes a spoiler. But the problem is it is so subjective. I mean it's less than a year since AoE was in the cinema but I don't think you could consider it a spoiler that Grimlock is in it. Been much longer than that for some comic plots yet there are many that don't know'em. I think people just have to judge for themselves and if ever unsure use the 'spoilers' tag beforehand

    Be even better if we had a Spoiler tag...

    Media/YouTube too :P

    I collect the IDW Collection hardcovers which are about a year behind currently, so the spoiler was somewhat annoying. I blame IDW though.
    Which brings us to where we are today...

    It more just prompted the whole discussion rather than anyone thinking you were outraged

    Talking

    Cool. Yeah I didn't think my response was too hostile at all. It's was more of an 'oh no they didn't!'

    Funny how one little comment can lead to this level of discussion

    Never ever do it again Trev!!!!!!!!!!

    Heh - you would have thought I would have learned from last year when I had blocked all my coworkers on FB and thought it safe to make one little comment that I took down after half a day anyway. Still made it to work, got shared about and ended up with me being yelled at by the Principal
