This might be a pain in the tuchas for full-on 'ho's.
Yes. A major part of what I'm hearing from full-on hos (and I definitely include myself in that list) is that the spoiler zone has always been the place to read and write unrestricted, without extra coding, shit to click on, and (absolutely most importantly of all) having to worry all the time about "am I allowed to say that in this particular thread before the third Tuesday after the full moon". It's about being able your feet up on the coffee table after the in-laws leave, not about whether it's a button or a whitefont we have to manipulate.
Agreed. While I'd prefer to have this thread be an anything-goes-post-whatever-you've-heard area, it sounds like most of the whitefont workarounds would be more onerous than whitefont itself, and likely result in lots of accidental spoilage until people got used to the new method.
I've had a brainstorm-y idea that spoilers could fairly easily be placed "inside" a small button, so that people who wanted to read them would have to push the button and read it in a message box.
I appreciate and respect all your work, but that sounds like a major pain to use.
Plus, how would it work with threadsucking?

No difference. Anyway, I think the idea got through my tinfoil hat somehow. Can you still buy
lead
foil?
Lost - previous spoiler discussion
what do you all think about the notion that not all the people we've seen were on the plane. I think this can only refer to Hurley. What might this mean?
LN (is it okay to call you that?) (also, those are my initials, so I keep wanting to respond when people post to you),
I have heard the same thing, though I wouldn't have chosen Hurley. Is he the only one we haven't seen on the plane in the crash scenes? Maybe it was wish fulfilment, and Shannon wished Boone there, or Sun wished Jin there.
That would suck.
Gus, nope that does not count. It refers to one of the 14.
Lee, oh yeah, LN works. more below:
Hurley is the only one we haven't seen on the plane and who isn't paired (e.g. Walt/Michael) - and is one of the few who doesn't have an ep planned (through 13 or 14).
He is also nosey as fuck and seems to have had a one on one conversation with the other 13.
Huh -- according to TV Tome, you're right about
Hurley not having his own episode
, at least not in the first 10 eps. Synopses, titles, and writers for the first half of the season are here, btw.
Looking very very very much forward to ep 9.
Actually, courtesy of Fury, don't we have info past ep 10?
Let me find my LJ post...
