Default Why not just make a SPOILER Sub-Forum?

Instead of having to label every General thread **SPOILER** why not just create a sub-form to discuss current events and spoilers, that way if someone hasn't watched it yet they just need to stay away from the SPOILER forum.

Seems logical to me.

Create a sticky on top of the General forum stating not to discuss current event results within general and to go in to the Spoiler Forum.

There is really no need for it, the only case in which spoilers are need are the night of the PPV or unless the PPV is on a time delay.

The day after the event is fair game as long as I'm concerned.

It's not a bad idea, but I just don't think it's necessary, but maybe some of the other mods feel different, lets see what they say.

Exactly, **SPOILERS** are only needed on the night of the PPV...so why muddy the General forum with it? Let them start and end in the Spoiler forum. Use General for what it is, 'General'.

In addition, it just seems redundant and problematic to have Spoiler threads in the General forum. Every time it is the same crap, is why I proposed it.

Like I said, it's not a bad idea, I just don't see a huge need for one, lets see what the other guys say.

I actually think it is a great idea


only problem is that sometimes even 4 or 5 days after an event people will still be talking on the same thread. I think we should close all the threads in the spoiler zone after 48 hours (or something like that) if you guys go through with this idea.

I don't think it would be that much trouble.

I think anyone that hasn't watched an event should stay away from threads such as "Alves vs Hughes discussion." When there's a thread that's titled "BJ Penn kicked Sherk's ass," then we have some problems.

We had a spoilers section for a long time but noone posted in it. Because they would post in the discussion thread during the event and then in the general forums after the event was over.
