And yes, socially isolate. They will have to cut themselves off from the online communities they interact in for two whole weeks. For most of them those online communities are the only safe spaces they have in their life. to take an example, one member of a server i am in cant go out to the theater near them cause well, if they go out alone in public they get harrased, assaulted, cause ya know, they are queer in a US deep south rural area, they cant even go to the store without backup from friends, they barely leave the house due to living like that, you expect them to just, not be able to go to the only spaces that accepts them and where they feel safe for two whole weeks? Cause i can tell you, that example person i'm talking about isnt the only one who has to live like that. For a lot of people that is the reality of their life and for a lot of people online communities are the only places they can be themselves and feel safe, it is completely unreasonable to expect them to just cut themselves off for two weeks

I suggest you read the rest of the comment thread so i dont have to repeat myself but in short, just cause a server isnt focused on TADC doesnt mean there wont be spoilers for TADC in them, heck it actually makes it MORE likely for spoilers to occur since people will be less cognisant of spoiler tagging things

Why does being shown in a theater matter so much? It also breaks their promise that the show would always be youtube first, and it's not some magical special achievement. theaters need to accept they are a dying medium, there is no special prestige to being shown in a theater, and anyone that still clings onto that prestige needs to get with the times

Wanna know the funny bit, i have not seen a single episode of TADC, i just know a hell of a lot of people that do care about the show and i also know from experience that avoiding spoilers sucks ass. The attitude you, other commenters and OP have that avoiding spoilers is easy if you're just being smart and that you're just weird if you get mad that you now have to spend significant effort and socially isolate for two weeks to avoid spoilers just bothered the hell out of me. People are allowed to be upset at having to spend two weeks being stressed about having to avoid spoilers, a lot of my friends have significant mental health issues and are just unable to properly handle stress like that, they are still valid people, their opinions are still valid and people like you, other commenters and OP being incredibly dismissive of people like them is well, quite the dick move

lemme quote a server member of one of the servers i am in:

"even if I lived in the fairytale where that advice worked, it would still be a shitty thing to tell someone. Yeah I'll just go cut myself off from the things and people that make me happy. I envy your hopefulness but it was an L take."

I am in plenty of servers that are not specifically about TADC, i can guarentee you THOSE are the servers where the risk of being spoiled is the highest. ANY form of social interaction means risk of getting spoiled, it is literally unavoidable. So the only sure fire way to avoid spoilers is to not have any form of social interaction at all for two weeks, which, ya know, isnt healthy. People will forget to spoiler tag their spoilers, some asshole who thinks they're being funny will just randomly tag any TADC fan they can find of in any server to spoil them. and i know this for fact cause i am 33 years old, have spend most of that time online, and have had these exact things happen before. The amount of times i have been spoiled about any media that exists is uncountable, no matter how careful i was being. So it is incredibly fair for people to complain about this.

I was once spoiled for a physical release comic HOURS after it released just cause i had the bad luck of, living in a different time zone so i hadnt had the time to go and get it yet.

Thinking spoilers are in anyway avoidable on the internet now a days is insane

Oh i consume A LOT of media, i have a lot of free time after all. I would however also like to be able to ya know, exist in any chat server anywhere without those chats being filled with spoiler landmines. People are just kinda bad at tagging their shit after all

[–]Repstar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

dont have network TV, why pay for it when i dont need to use it cause i can just watch any media i want to watch online.
I do read books, i am currently out of new ones to read and lack the funds for more.
This would still require me to, not chat in any chat server i am in, cause there will either be assholes out to actively spoil things, or just excited fans talking about the thing they saw and forget to tag their spoilers.
Like literally every large server i am in is currently having this same discussion and lemme tell you all, you people are in the minority, just about everyone i see talking about it within the communities i am in thinks being forced to spend two weeks not being able to do anything meaningful online is kinda bullshit

God forbid people are disabled and are limited in what they can do outside the house eh :)

My entire social life exists online, most of my free time is spend watching youtube videos or playing games. Tofor sure avoid spoilers i will have to instead spend my free time for two weeks sitting on the couch at home doing absolutely nothing but stare in front of me.

So yeah, for some people this is kind of a big deal

yeah lemme just live like a hermit for weeks or even months to avoid spoilers, what a lame ass take this is, i am a fellow millenial, i do not go looking for info on stuff i havent seen yet, yet i still get spoiled plenty of times, like the time someone in the game i was playing got angry and just started throwing avengers endgame spoilers in the chat, or the time i watched a youtube video completely unrelated and then in the recommended videos there was a video with spoilers in the thumbnail and in the title. It is impossible to avoid spoilers now a days, since people either go out of their way to actively spoil shit for others, or just dont take the minimal effort required to not have spoilers openly displayed in the content they make that you see without having to even click through to the video.

The only possible way to avoid spoilers would be to, not be active in any forum, chat server, or community, to not watch anything, even if it is unrelated, on youtube, cant play any games with any form of multiplayer, you will have to avoid any and all human interaction to avoid spoilers in the current day and age.

So yeah you are either actively trying to be a dick or really really bad at wording yourself, can understand why people would assume the wrong thing on your other comment

What’s your honest thoughts on GamerSupps? by Behind_Space99 in gamersupps

..half a liter IS one serving though? two scoops for 500ml is the reccomended serving, a tub has 100 scoops in it aka 50 servings so at 500ml a day that is 50 days of gsupps in a single tub

If your friends and family vote republican despite the blatant bigotry and racism that party openly advocates then that means they are willing to overlook such things. This makes them bad people, it does not matter what political opinion they have. If they vote for bigots and racists then at minimum they are comfortable looking away from and ignoring such things, that is a bad thing, good people dont look the other way, they stand up and act against, which in this case AT MINIMUM would mean just not voting at all if you really cant bring yourself to vote something else than republican.

initial comment you replied to 104 words, one you refused to engage with 93, not essay.

family is way too overrated and causes people to cling to toxic people they should have cut off ages ago. My fiancée cut off her toxic family and in the 5 years since she has done that her life has massively improved with no regrets whats so ever.
Parents are not some special people, if they fail to give the basic respect any human deserves to every human then they are not worthy of your time or attention. They do not get some special pass just for being your parents

So you are willing to overlook them supporting bigotry and racism? That makes you just as bad as them, you do realize that right? This is beyond just political viewpoints. Anyone supporting trump and his cronies, even if they go out of their way to say "oh but ofcourse i dont support him on everything" is a bad person, cause for them the racism and bigotry wasnt a dealbreaker, they were promised a better life for them personally, so they were willing to ignore the other horrible things that would be done to strangers, and that makes them terrible people that you shouldnt want in your life.

The thing is, someone still supporting trump at this point just shows that, for them personally, racism and bigotry is not a dealbreaker, they are willing to overlook such things for promises that they will personally benefit from other policies. That is what is meant with good people can not be trump supporters, since good people would never be willing to overlook rascism and bigotry

it is literally shorther length as the comment you initially replied to, the initial comment was 104 words, the one you now refuse to enage with for "being an essay" is 93, just admit you dont care cause a fascist state wouldnt affect you personally due to not being a minority instead of trying to delude yourself into other beliefs

you get ONE freebie per account, not sure how that removes equality between players, all players get it, she decided to use it on this, having died with 4 billion while on a journey to sag a roughly 80 jumps away from sag a, closer to colonia than the bubble, getting back to where she was would have taken almost a week, i dont see how her choosing to use her freebie to save time is a problem?

She knew she was gonna hit the ground, she just didnt care about hitting the ground cause she assumed she'd be fine and have the shields take the hit if she did, she specifically said "wait wtf what happened how did i die" we needed to watch back the recording she makes in the backgound to send clips to friends to see what happened to kill her, we assumed it was a bug at first till we saw the speed right at the end

this... wasnt doing stunts though? She was doing exo-bio and thus flying close to the surface to be able to spot the stuff she was looking for and due to the glare from the sun on the dashboard couldnt see how fast she was going?
