Halo 4 - Please Do Not Post Campaign Spoilers (Campaign is being streamed now.)
Halo 4 - Please Do Not Post Campaign Spoilers (Campaign is being streamed now.)
Let me be clear, I can't/won't actually stop anyone from posting spoilers. This is just a polite request.
I don't want to get into the semantics of what is a spoiler or that we can use spoiler tags. Fact is, over the small number of weeks remaining until the game releases, there is a good chance the game will fall into the hands of people who will post every little detail including all of Campaign. Lots of people won't like that to happen.
So let us please not post that stuff here. People who want to see spoilers can easily find them outside of this forum.
I will continue to post details about Halo 4's features, especially for multiplayer. I do not intend to post campaign storyline. Not even the officially sanctioned 343i stuff. You will be able to find those things on your own from the Waypoint Bulletin I frequently link to.
I don't expect people to be perfect, as I certainly am not. Mistakes will get made.
I would prefer not to see topic titles like "Master Chief marries Cortana" etc.
If the general consensus is I'm being too stuffy about this then perhaps there is another solution. How about I create a topic called "Halo 4 - Post your Spoilers in here"?
UPDATE: 10.13.12
As of 10.12.12 bootlegged/stolen/ripped copies of campaign are being streamed. Multiple sources. Be careful what you click on.
UPDATE: 11.2.12
If your don't want to get spoiled, only follow official game streams. Many players could be streaming the Campaign.

Put spoiler in title of post... use spoiler tag... Don't click if you don't want to read them? It's what we've used for 7 years here and it might be more confusing for people to have 1 rule for 1 forum and another set for every other forum. Plus:
[spoiler]It's worked pretty well for all these years[/spoiler]

Spoiler tags and titles are fine but they are not as foolproof as no post at all.
Once the game releases, I expect people will want to talk about what their experience. Most people who still don't want to be spoiled for a few weeks after release will not be hanging out here, I hope.
People will just have to make choices.

Douche nozzle.
Either control the content or don't. But don't empower your tiny army of sycophants with the responsibilties of your job and then snipe at them and micro-manage the shit you should have been doing in the first place.
Doodi sucks.
Fancy words from and Eagles fan...
On November 6, I'll unsticky this topic and replace it with something a little more liberal and a little less cautious.
I would still hope people use Spoiler tags and non-spoiler titles for a week or so.
I am very impressed and thankful Halo 4 spoilers have not invaded here yet.
I now recommend to those not wanting to get spoiled before Nov. 6, don't hang out in this forum, or any other Halo forum.
Nothing I post in this forum, from here on out, will affect whether you buy this game or not. All you need to know, is already known.
are thier any flood in campain?? does anyone know??
Thanks
