Speak Up About Spoilers!

Welcome to our first Speak Up Saturday! As we mentioned in our re-opening post, we wanted to poll the community about what rules we should have in [community profile] tv_talk when it comes to spoilers.

We want to encourage discussion about shows that are not recent, but we don't want to spoil someone's enjoyment of a show that they have not watched yet. On the other hand, we don't want to make posting, commenting, or reading unwieldy.

Therefore, we would like to ask you about your preferences. What would you like to see as the rule for spoilers in posts and comments?
