To spoil or not to spoil...

[ash48]

I think it's handy knowing the spoiler tolerance level of my darling flist. Some of you I know... but some of my new friends *waves* I'm not sure about. So....a simple poll.

Um. I like to be spoiled for things when it will increase my enjoyment of the show, and to avoid spoilers when they would decrease my enjoyment of the show.

Some things worry me, and I'm happier knowing how they will turn out in advance so I can settle in and enjoy the details of the episodes. Sometimes the twist is the whole point, so knowing in advance would ruin everything.

Of course, in practice there's no way to know which spoilers will be which, so I tend to swing wildly from reading everything to reading nothing. But I never mind if somebody tells me something, or if I find spoilers in reviews or essays, because if I don't understand my own spoiler policy I can hardly expect anybody else to. :)

Seems like the way to be! I sometimes wish I could just tap into the spoilers I want to know. Mostly though I think I prefer not knowing anything. I love being totally surprised. I remember when Lucifer first appeared to Sam in S7 - I was completely surprised. I even missed Mark's name appear in the opening credits so it came totally out of the blue.
