A quick question: what is the Codex's official take on spoilers? There are some people who put very spoiler-y things out in the open despite having the option to hide it behind spoiler tags (Rogue Trader thread is the biggest issue for me in this regard).

If it's something that came out within the last four years (this is an arbitrary number that I feel is reasonable) I try not to spoil anything critical. If the media in question is any older than that I don't give a shit and needless to say, it falls to the reader to avert his own gaze, especially if the thread isn't designated (No Spoilers) or something similar. Even then, the prudent thing to do, if you care that much, is to avoid all relevant threads until you've played it.

If you think somebody's posts are inappropriately spoilery, tell him to stop doing that and use spoiler tags.

If he keeps posting untagged spoilers, report his posts.

I avoid threads of released games that I haven't finished. If there's a rule about spoilers, I don't think anyone follows it.
