I think it's funny that all you Breaking Bad people don't see an issue with a thread title that talks about the funeral of the main character, basically guaranteeing that means he dies in the finale.

Yet if anybody starts a GoT thread that talks about something as basic as names of characters 800 people RA and flip out that it's a Spoiler and they're ruining it for everybody.

I'm sorry, whether or not Walt dying seems obvious since he has cancer and runs a Meth ring, that is a major spoiler. It is common courtesy on the Movie/TV board to not post spoilers of shows/movies in thread titles, even if they've already aired.
Obviously you can use common sense for different type of shows, or older shows (ie: Sienfeld or Friends).

But what if I posted a thread title that said: "How did you deal with _______ dying in The Wire?" but actually listed a name?

I could be like, well hey he was a drug dealer so you should know that he dies, plus it's already aired so it's not a spoiler...

But frick me if I did that because I could spoil a big part of the show for a lot of people

im not even a breaking bad person. i just dont think someone should be banned over something that has already aired and been out a few days.

It doesn't do that at all unless you assume that. It's akin to asking What would John Dorian's funeral be like. It doesn't mean he definitely died in the show, it could just be a question.

And again, Walt dying should be no spoiler.

Walt has terminal cancer, the fact that he is involved in the meth game has nothing to do with his certain death.
