Is it time for a Skyrim Cheats, Hints and Spoilers forum?

Post » Sun Oct 09, 2011 9:50 pm

With just over a month to go until the release of Skyrim and the game pretty much complete in terms of development, more and more detailed info is being released. Of particular note are the Achievements, which I've been avoiding like the plague. As of time of writing, there are three topics with the word 'spoiler' in the title on the first page of General Discussion.

Given that, is it time for a dedicated forum for more spoilerish topics revealing info on game quests, factions and what have you? Personally, I'm going to start giving Skyrim General Discussion a miss from now on - I love finding out new info on the game but I'd like some things to be left up to me to discover.

It would probably be a good idea. I can't bear the thought of accidently reading that Dark Brotherhood spoiler...

Same. I have avoided that thread like it's the black plague.

I vote yes! Although I will be hanging out in there, lurking in the corner furtively.

Spoiler threads are easy to avoid though.

Most of them post spoiler in the title, and I have yet to find out information I wouldn't want to see accidentally, soo...

If there are threads that warrant a spoiler tag even a month away from release (and I've been avoiding them myself!) then there is probably a need for a hints/spoilers type forum. I doubt that there will be one until release day however. At least so far people are tagging spoilerish threads!

I unfortunately read a tiny bit of the spoiler luckily only a small part of it

It would be good to segregate those topics a mod forum would be nice too...

SPOILER ALERT

Jesus H. Christ, why did you do that to me? Everytime I see those words, my pointer goes straight for the scroll bar.


Edit: I sense imminent spoiler trolls. There's something about this thread... IT'S A TRAP!

yeah, it probably would be a good time for a spoiler forum... even then, there will be some trouble makers, or ignorant users, who decide to put spoilers in this forum, so its bet to avoid the forums altogether or be extra cautious, even when we do get our spoiler forum.

I've avoided it too, but that isn't an argument against a Spoiler forum now, that's an argument against Spoiler forums generally.

is the game out yet? no? then no its not time for a cheats hints and spoilers sub forum.

Your logic is flawed. It is entirely possible to spoil something that isn't out yet.
