But if people who haven't read the book want to have a thread limited to discussion amongst themselves informed only by the TV show and don't want bookreaders posting in the thread, that seems reasonable enough and easy for bookreaders to respect and not post.
I aint no filthy book reader though.
The whole reason this discussion started is because there are numerous sources of info about GOT that are not books, specifically you tubbz and wiki/internet in general.
Are there posters who really want a thread hermetically sealed to just wat is on the TV? Head assplode trying to walk in the shoes of anyone with that motivation.
I dont get it at all and am still waiting for someone to get close to even a compelling argument about why general non spoiler lore discussion about the GOT universe which can be consumed book free all over the internet should be forbidden.
Its obvious that during the several seasons of book = massive spoiler potential, massive vigilance, aggression and ban with extreme prejudice was necessary but some have forgotten the cause of the vigilance and see the vigilance as a prime mover in and of itself, which is understandable as it was an attitude necessary for several years before winter actually came.
Now they cant see past the vigilance actually seeing it as the point of the thread itself, no, the vigilance was just a means to an end. No ****ing spoilers being that end. I dont believe for one second the spirit or the intention of the thread was to have a discussion where we just discuss what is on the TV with absolute surgical precision.
