I don't find that unreasonable at all in my opinion. Most wiki's even acknowledge this by having a boiler plate saying "this page contains spoilers read at your own risk". Dropping spoilers about any type of story is taboo even on fan forums regardless of how long its been since release. The expected place to talk about them is in private or under an area that is clearly marked plot spoilers (or at minimum a post with a spoiler tag that makes the text not readable).

Even if it wasn't the standard, at the very least its common human decency. If you enjoyed something wouldn't you want everyone else to enjoy it as well? Dropping spoilers of any kind in a public page without proper precautions is just being a dick.(note I do feel that the person in this case at least tried, it just didn't work well cause most would have to see it in order to read the comments under them, but an attempt was made so IMO they do not fall under this category)

Time since release has never made sense as a valid excuse for me. So we are just going to magically think that everyone knew it was released and had the ability to watch it sooner? Hell some don't even have access to the media to watch it sooner, either due to age or just lack of accessibility

Just get over yourself. The world does not exist to cater to your every whim, nor is it anyone's job other than your parents to shield you from minor disappointment. People are going to talk about media and it is the height of arrogance to expect them to be silent just so your potential enjoyment of it isn't slightly lessened.

BTW, Rosebud was his sled.

I wasn't attacking you in that message but, I think you should calm down some, practice what you preach. The world doesn't revolve around you either, we are all just trying to enjoy it the best we can.

Adding a simple "spoiler alert" is not that big of an ask. It's not like its a request not to talk about it or not discuss it. It's a request to properly label said spoilers to not ruin it for others.

The mental gymnastics behind that is insane to me. Are you saying that a One Piece fan shouldn't go on one piece forums period until they fully finish the show? That's insane my guy. Just label content if its in an area that potentially hasen't seen that content, that way everyone who hasen't seen it can enjoy it as well.

Should have stopped on your first paragraph.
