    Default FFVII spoilers in FFVII AC forum

    Do they really need to be marked, or should we just add "Forum contains many spoilers for the original FFVII game" into the description for the forum? I mean, I can understand people marking spoilers for what happens in FFVII Advent Children so those who haven't seen it yet can do so, however I'd say 80-90% of the threads there contain spoilers regarding FFVII (the original game). I can't imagine why someone would actively discuss Advent Children without knowing anything about FFVII the game, considering it's on par with creating a seperate forum for disk 2 of the game and then telling people to mark the spoilers regarding what happens in disk 1.

    Thoughts?

    EDIT: I've added a redirect to this thread in the FFVII:AC forum.

    I say its just attention seeking and we just merge all the FF forums into one and force everyone to mark everything they say as spoilers that way no-one will be unhappy, or you know we could just go with your idea of typing it into the forum description...

    Edit: Oh yes there was supposed to be a point to this post and thats not everyone always reads the forum descriptions.

    1. FFVII is an old enough game that I don't think it needs spoiler marks at all.
    2. Why would you be browsing the AC forum if you have not completed the game?

    Those are my thoughts.

    FFX spoilers go unmarked in the FFX-2 forum.
    FFVII spoilers go unmarked in the DC and AC fora.
    This is logic.

    I agree with Del Murder. FF7 came out in 1997. I don't see the point.
