Anyhow, you get my point.

I understand alot of people want this knowledge, and can't wait for the next bit of information, and that's cool. If that works for you, man go for it.

However, I don't like spoilers, even old ones. I remember initial leaked pics of Optimus and whoever had a spoiler block on the front page. Then the warning turned to the picture.

I saw nearly the whole movie just by logging on long before it hit the theaters!

Well, here's my thing. TF2 is in the works, news is gonna fly, and let it! Just keep a nondiscript thumb for things like the front page, that don't hinder your knowing, or spoil my veiwing.

Is it to much to ask?

It will be tough yes but any new post will have TF2 or hopefully something to that effect in the title so just avoid those posts then.

Despite the fact I pretty much saw all the designs and read nearly the entire script or at least an over view of it that did not ruin the movie for me because there were a large number of changes made from first design to the final versions.

Also, try to consider the fact that it might not be official news either because to be honest what have we seen so far ? the autobots being hauled around on vehicles and some recent pics of a nearly deserted old factory or complex of some type which may or may not make it in to the final cut of the film and it tells us nothing of what that scene is.

OK, you logged on today, yoyu saw 2 TF2 thumbs on the front page. That tipped you off to movie news.

You chose to look, I chose to skip. Alls well

2 weeks from now, the TF2 Thumbs are replaced with specifc pics and designes with a tilte explaining.

Is that fair to the guy who skipped cause he's logging on for toy news or something?

Now don't get me wrong, I fully respect the effort that members and staff put into making this site awesome. I'm just wondering if a standarized thumb or bullet can help make keeping inadvertant spoilers to a minimum?

I mean come one, I did enjoy the Movie, but I would of had more fun if I hadn't known who dies, what happens when and stuff like that.
The moment I see a spoiler in the news headline, I'll leave this site for the summer.

No they haven't. Not long ago there was a big red banner at the top of every page that announced a character that was going to appear in TF2. Then there's the fact that people put the spoiler itself in the title of each thread.
