How much do you avoid spoilers?

[BlueBrony 388]

When it comes to pony episodes, how much do you try to avoid spoilers?

 

Personally, I try to know as little as possible going into a new episode, because I enjoy the surprise of seeing something for the very first time. In reality, I ussualy find out the title and maybe have a idea of who the focus of the episode is before seeing it, because avoiding all spoilers on the internet is nearly impossible. I don't generally get angry if I accidently learn some sort of spoiler, unless if it some sort of major twist or plot point (haha meta joke).

Hi!

 

This thread appears to be discussing MLP:FiM in some way, shape or form. Thus, it has been sentenced to Show Discussion.

I say it depends. If it's a huge, big episode like a finale or something bad happens, even if it was minor big thing, I'd avoid it a lot. If it's really big, I'd avoid it like a plague. If it's for the new episode coming next, then I would want some background in it. Maybe a short summary of the main plot or something. Maybe a preview. All in all it really depends for me.

[Dynamo Pad 11,328]

For me I would say it depends on the episode or if something very important happens in the episode. I usually don't care if I get spoiled about what happens in the episode. I still get surprised and excited to see what happens in the episode once it comes out.

I only avoid spoilers for season premier and finale episodes. Generally I only avoid spoilers for shows with story arcs.

[GuyNamedEarl 1,332]

I like to know what the episode is about before I watch it, but nothing more.

Well, I don't mean to brag... but here's a real pic of me dodging spoilers.

i try to avoid spoilers as much as possible because I find them extremely annoying

[Troblems 5,617]

Not at all. It's usually pretty easy to guess what's going to happen in an episode, it's how it happens that is important to me.

I avoid the show spoilers like the plague. I dont wanna know what happens even if its something small. I want to go into the episode without knowing anything except the title and guesses on what the show may be about from the title. I was once in a skype group and someone joked about revealing the ending to Equestria Girls. EVERYONE got so mad they made a new skype group and automatically kicked anyone who even joked about revealing show spoilers.

I avoid them all together. I look at nothing, hear nothing, etc. I like to go into it without any knowledge whatsoever. This way, I do not have high or low expectations. I do not have any previous notions in my head either. It's just my viewing on the episode.

[White 189]

I don't mind them when it comes to MLP. I can easily guess what is going to happen anyway.

I used to read all the info about the upcoming episodes, but now I prefer to avoid all of them.

I like to watch an episode without knowing what it's going to be about.

[cider float 2,538]

As best as I can otherwise I would see pretty much the whole thing before it's released.

[ThatOneComrade 1,091]

Depends on the thing. I'll avoid Fallout 4 plot spoilers like the plague, but if I got a spoiler for an MLP episode I'd be annoyed that it was spoiled but I wouldn't freak too much, you know? I would rather it not have been spoiled in the first place though

[chirox the pony 1,336]

I actively look for spoilers, I don't tend to be a big fan of surprises. 

[FluffyGoat13 375]

I don't actively hunt spoilers, nor do I avoid them. If i happen across them, well that kinda sucks.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,534]

Unless it is an episode that I really really REALLY want to know about right away, the most I will read is the episode's short synopsis, if that. Lately the most I have seen are the titles for many episodes and nothing beyond that. I am on the group of 'wanting to be surprised' when watching the episodes.

[cmarston1 5,959]

I'm willing to read the synopsis and episode title and check out the released clip (if there is one) of an episode.

That is unless it is an episode that I really want to see or a finale or premiere or some sort of heavy spoilery episode.

[MLPFanatic34 3,234]

I don't really avoid spoilers, but it depends on the situation, in most cases I don't mind a little spoiler.

[Sidral Mundet 1,666]

Honestly I don't avoid spoilers. Here's the thing, in any future/repeat viewings you already know the plot, but does it make it any less good? If the story and plot and excursion are good, then me knowing a two sentence summary wouldn't change a thing.

[Koukatsu 5,899]

Jeric "banned" me from the season 5 forum leading up to episode 100.

Read into that what you will.

[ponylaces 1,870]

I can't avoid spoilers. Even if I try, I end up reading them.
