The problem with spoiler tags is when people who want to discuss spoilers take over a thread that was not intended for spoiler discussion. Then you just get post after post with nothing but spoiler boxes. And if you want to quote someone whose post is only partly a spoiler, you find the text of their spoiler is not blanked out when you get to the 'compose' screen.

The 'Lost' thread is a good example of excessive use of spoiler tags.

I think it's best to keep all spoilers, tagged or not, out of this thread, especially if that's what BR wants (and I agree with him). If peeps want to discuss spoilers, then why not create a new thread with a 'no spoiler tags' warning in its title.
