|

A lot of the info in this post was copied from the Forum FAQ/Rules list. You should also read that if you have any questions about this or other forum rules.
Spoiler Policy -
This is how it works:
If you are posting something that may be considered a spoiler (a pivotal plotline point) Post it like this:
SPOILER
This way, someone can skip the post if they want to.
END SPOILER
Now, if your entire thread is a spoiler, please make use of the thread's title to warn people!
Example:
Thread Title:
[SPOILER]What Should I Do After Carlo's Mission?
We are very serious about this policy, and will be implementing bans for people that post disregarding it and spoiling the story for others. The first infraction is a three day ban, and every infraction after that is a seven day ban. If you are a continued repeat offender then we will handle you on a case by case basis.
This is not difficult - and it is only done to try to make sure that everyone that visits this forum enjoys the game equally without some big mouth ruining it for them, before they can finish the game.
If you are unclear on how to mark a spoiler, what constitues a spoiler, or anything else regarding this policy, please PM me and I will explain it to you.
I will be handing out stiff bans for people who disregard Spoiler rules and spoil mission info, plot info, endings, storyline or whatever. Anything that could be construed as a spoiler MUST be appropriately labeled. Note: If you don't like my spoiler tags, that's fine. You can also make your spoiler text invisible so that a member has to highlight the text in order to read it. However, you will need to put a visible spoiler label above it so people don't highlight the text unknowingly seeing a blank post!
Thank you, folks!!
Edit: Here is an alternate method of posting potential spoilers:
Spoiler: spoiler warning
Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text.
