Not what I said at all



It's exactly what you said:
quote:

Of course I don't get why non-readers can't just RA the comments that they don't want here and continue the discussion of the show, ignoring those they don't want to address.

You're saying we should RA comments from readers that shouldn't be here. Either that or ignore them.
quote:

As said earlier by one of the other posters, some of us like to discuss the show with those who haven't read the books and the book reader threads tend to veer off more into the books then discussion of the actual show.

So discuss the episode there then, and keep the discussion on track. That's what that thread is for: episode discussion for people who read the books. Don't y'all fall into the category of "people who've read the books discussing the episode"? Of course you do. So why do y'all feel the need to come into this thread for discussion that goes elsewhere? That doesn't make any sense.
quote:

Because frankly, you all don't "own" the thread and that's how it's being treated. If certain posters are a problem then address that with the admins

That's your reasoning...that nobody "owns the thread"? You guys can say all you want that "this isn't for non readers, it's for no spoilers," but y'all know that's bullshite (and let's not pretend that we wouldn't be having the same arguments even if it said "no book people," as history had shown us time and time again). This thread was started in contrast to the book thread. Just like every other episode. But instead of appreciating that, you're arguing that y'all should basically post whatever you want in here and the rest of us should just ignore it or RA, and frick us if we don't agree because "nobody owns this thread." Amazing. By that logic, why even have thread titles? Nobody "owns" any of these threads, so every one should be fair game to talk about any and everything.

And your other suggestion is to get admins involved. Well IMO it shouldn't come to that. We should be able to handle this as adults, but y'all can't keep yourselves from posting in here instead of the thread that is created for you guys...and then bitch at us for "crying" about it, when you choose to ignore that you're causing the problems to begin with. Are any of you saying that if we have a "no readers" thread next week that you'd actually stay out of it? Because nobody in here actually believes that bullshite.

I agree. The book readers here tried that a few pages back by continuing discussion about the show until you all started back up again with your non-reader thread manifestos that have been rehashed a million times.
