Hey guys! With Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep released, I felt it would be important to give everyone a little refresher about how things work in the Spoilers Section.
1.) SPOILERS
A spoiler is any bit of information, big or small, about a recently released game. Some people don't really care if they read spoilers, others do. Out of respect for your fellow members, please don't ruin their gaming experience. Anything that isn't common knowledge is a spoiler. If you aren't sure if what you are about to post is a spoiler or not, DON'T POST IT. This shouldn't be surprisingly new information, in fact it is mostly common sense. All spoilers should be kept in this section.
2.) ILLEGAL DOWNLOADING
Linking to an illegal download of the game will lead to an automatic ban, no discussions.
Intentionally leaking spoilers will result in an automatic ban, no discussions.
We're here to support the Kingdom Hearts series, not to give it away for free.
Remember, this is all for the benefit of your fellow members. We don't want to kill their enjoyment of the game. Keep in mind that the same forum rules apply here. Thanks a bunch and happy discussion!

- Don't give away spoilers in the thread title itself! For example--
BAD TITLE said:Aqua dies in Birth by Sleep!!
GOOD TITLE said:[bbs] The person who dies in Birth by Sleep is...!!
This way, folks will know what the thread is about, while still keeping spoilers away from those who don't want to see them.
I've seen a couple of threads around the section lately that had far too much information in the topics for comfort. Now, you might think it's cool to put spoilers in the title since you're in the Spoilers section, but you're wrong.
The titles show outside the Spoilers section.
Be it if you just got into the KH section or even browsed through the forum without having the KH section minimized, the titles show.
And that means that if you thought writing too much in the title was cool, you got someone spoiled, and we're not cool with that.

- Spoilers DO NOT belong outside of this section. Some people still want to make up theories and continue guessing about certain aspects of the game. If you see a theory that is wrong, pass over it or move on. Even if you specify why exactly it is wrong, or what actually is right, you are still spoiling people.
To these people the game isn't out yet, so all of the things that you may know as false are still thoroughly possible for them. You can refute what they say with information from past games.
- I've run across many threads where it seems that people have forgotten how to use spoiler boxes. It's really very simple.
[spoiler= Xion...]...is Sora's Mom [/spoiler]
Or
[spoilers]Xion is Sora's mom![/spoilers]
The result:
Xion is Sora's mom!
Or
Or
[spoilers]Xion is Sora's mom![/spoilers]
The result:
Xion is Sora's mom!
Or
Spoiler Show...is Sora's mom!
- The same basic forum rules still apply here. No double posting, spam, harassment, etc... CLICK!
