Just out of curiousity, was the LJ/DW contingent more or less vocal on the spoiler issue? Spoilers actually seem to be more of a hazard irl than online to me. People are pretty good about using cuts or those mouse-over/"click for spoiler" thingies on LJ and the boards I visit, but once something slips out in an enthusiastic face-to-face conversation, there's no going back!
