If you want to be completely unspoiled you shouldn't be here, it's not anyone's job but your own to protect you from spoilers. The show you're talking about is almost 55 years old and this is the general Ultraman thread, no one should even think about censoring themselves for your benefit, that's a selfish and pretty rude request.
Um … piss off?
You think that's an appropriate response?
I think perhaps you should take your own advice. Takeru’s comment was completely reasonable.
Really? It just seems like a general courtesy when someone is watching something for the first time to try your best not to spoil things for them.
My request was limited to direct responses to my post — of which there was exactly one of substance, from Christopher, who evidently had no problem understanding and respecting my request. There was no suggestion I should be “shielded from spoilers” in the thread as a whole. Plus you are not even an active contributor to this thread (a search located four posts to date, three of which are in the last few days about this silly little beef), so no idea why you decided to randomly jump my case about a conversation that didn’t even concern you, and which the actual participants were conducting perfectly pleasantly.
I don't see a difference between responses to you directly or responses to the thread as a whole, those are still posts in this thread.
I may not post but I read the thread all the time but regardless, I don't have to be a regular contributor to earn the right to respond to you, I read your post, I wanted to respond because I thought your request was selfish and rude and I still think it is.
There are no "actual participants".
Whereas I thought your response was rude and weirdly, randomly aggressive, and still think it is.
And had you said that we could have had a conversation and I can agree that I was coming on strong. But you didn't do that, you told me to piss off, that's the real problem here. I criticized your post/request, you attacked me personally.
You’re right, that was my bad. I’ve been posting here almost 25 years (!), and I don’t think I’ve ever courted a flaming warning so directly. It’s an indicator of just how irritating I found your post, for the reasons I’ve detailed. But I appreciate your acknowledging that you were coming on strong, and I can do the same.
But isn't it always better to post in a preexising thread than to start a new for a topic that is already being discussed? I'm honest not clear on what the policy is here. I guess it just seems reasonable to me to not purposefully spoil something someone else has never seen before.
