This week FF12 has been released in Japan, as such it won't be long before all the details concerning the storyline will spread over the internet.
Many people are indifferent about spoilers, but some really do care.
You may post topics concerning spoilers, but the actual spoiler cannot be in the title of the topic. For instance, just say that in the storyline it turns out that Vaan is actually a bad guy. You are entitled to make a subject about this, but the title cannot be "OMG, VAAN IS A BAD GUY!" or anything along those lines. Instead, make the title something like "Spoilers about Vaan". Of course, within these topics you can freely talk about spoilers concerned.
Use common sense around the board. Even if you are talking about something do to with FF7 and a comparison to a spoiler in FF12 would certainly prove your point, either clearly mark your spoiler with big SPOILER signs, or just don't bother at all till later. The same applies to spoiler images, keep them out of your sigs.
People deliberatlely breaking these rules will be warned. Topics with spoilers in their titles will either be edited or trashed.
The mods aren't nazis, this is the internet and spoilers are bound to happen. But please try to avoid them. Once the game is released within europe, australia and america these rules will be lifted, as the fault becomes the individuals' if they come onto a Final Fantasy discussion board when the game is actually released amongst the members and expect to be shielded.
