Dear Supernatural Fandom  
Spoil me and I will end you.

I am a spoilerphobe, I don't want to know what's coming before I get to see it on the screen. As a media graduate it's hard enough to find a show I can enjoy without tearing it to shreds on a technical level and when I do manage to find that, I really don't want the suspense and the anticipation ruined by knowing what's coming.

For the entire second half of season two I had my friends list on here filtered right down to not include communities so that I could get to the finale without knowing anything. I had hoped that I could go back to my full flist now it's the summer but alas it seems that I may have to cut some communities completely because the spoilers are already starting.

So, a public service announcement. If you are an individual on my friends list who is likely to post spoilers, please comment here. If you would rather stay on my friends list please think about posting anything spoilery behind a cut so that those of us (like me) who don't want to know, don't stumble across it without warning.

*frets a little*

I'm not doing this to be mean, I don't want to lose any friends over this, but I just don't want to be told what's coming. Guessing, speculation, that's all fine - hell, it's half the fun. But concrete facts? Not for me thanks.

Wait, there are people who post spoilers without cutting? That is so not cool.
I normally hate spoilers but I read them every now and then and then try repress what I read, so you probably won't see me talking spoilers, even if I know them I like to pretend I don't :P

It's not happened *yet* (although some people are talking about their reaction to the spoilers in such a way that a semi-intelligent person could guess what the spoilers are) but it definitely happened during both seasons one and two.

I guess this is my version of a pre-emptive strike as it were!

*hugs*

I know the feeling - the few spoilers that I have known about in advance I've tried desperately to repress!

I hate when you say that reactions are spoilers too and people are like "whatever do you mean?".
Sorry you were spoiled earlier, that sucks majorly.

Like I said somewhere else here, they haven't started filming yet. Until it's in the can it's speculation as far as I'm concerned, but since these have been so wide-spread in the communities I'm guessing there's some kind of official source behind them.

I'm not checking, because I'll get entrenched in it and I'll end up knowing things I don't want to.

hehe, I'm very relaxed about this and also thinking that I won't judge or react to it until I've seen the final cut. And I trust Kripke with pretty much whatever he chooses to do so I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
