His name has been said 10 times already in show and it was all over the promotional materials. There is a difference between a spoiler and willful ignorance.

Well still he's mentioning that guy being significant relevant to the governor.

Agreed. But there are people on this board that don't want you to discuss anything even if it's already been aired on TV

So guessing is illegal? Learn the difference between spoiler, speculation, and willful ignorance.

Guessing is different from educated guessing, which is what you are obviously doing.

So fifty responses of blind guessing are cool but one of an educated guess based on what is already known isn't? Again there has to be a statue of limitations on spoilers. The GN prison arc was published when Bush was running for his second term.


This has been hashed out ad infinitum in reference to both this show and The Game of Thrones. I've been a reader in one show (GoT) and a non reader in this show. Best solution IMHO has been to run parallel threads - one for book readers who want to discuss how the show follows/deviates from and relates to the source material. And another for non readers. It works well if people just abide be it.

I always thought it was interesting, after how long is something not considered a spoiler?

But any and everything they bitch about isn't a spoiler.

If I put something from the GN like "Herschel becomes a drug dealer" (he doesn't just an example) that is a spoiler.

Thinking they named DeAngelo Bob Stookie is some significant is not a spoiler that is speculation.

There has to be some give and take and the thread has absolutely nothing about non-spoilers other than people to lazy to read bitching.

This would be relevant if this was a thread to strictly discuss the comic.

But this is a thread for an adaptation of said comic...and there is a separate thread to post the kind of educated thoughts you have.

That is bs, you can't discuss the show without how it relates to its source material. Congrats on the illiteracy/laziness. Learn the difference between a spoiler and speculation. The definition of spoiler everywhere I have ever posted is "what the general public doesn't know" not "what the individual idiot doesn't know".

Then its impossible to discuss the Walking Dead. The show is a different entity than the GN, I can't just post what I "think will happen" like a mindless idiot without relative comparison to the source material. Especially when everything I have posted is from the show's promos. If you aren't watching the promos that is your fault.



Whaddya know. Another week. Another Libertyabides situation where he's pushing it with the spoilers.

Just quit participating in the conversations.

I mean you can, but you're going to aggravate people who aren't as familiar with it

It really doesn't bother me bc I've already had a ton of other stuff spoiled for me on this show, so I'm used to it. I just think it's funny when people like you make clear implications about things that haven't happened yet and act surprised when people don't like it.

But you get 50,000 responses of the stupid stuff like why certain characters act certain ways, why they do certain stuff, when are we going to see zombie animals, when are we going to see how it starts.

Again if the thread doesn't say non-spoilers it should be fair game. As an adapted work it should be common knowledge that discussion will lead to the source material. There shouldn't be just one thread where you can discuss the source material. You should have a specific non spoiler thread for those too dumb to read.

And for the record I didn't post a spoiler, spoiler implies inside knowledge of the actual production. What you guys are bitching about is that wild mass guessing is cool but educated guessing is not. You guys have created your own little unwritten rule which no one else on the internet follows, you don't post it anywhere for people to see, then you bitch on people for breaking it?

It will be where they pile up, depressed Tyreese stays in the car, then he gets out and starts releasing his frustration at Rick/over Karen's death on a horde of Zombies with his hammer.

I think it has to be because of the gun fire and shite at the prison. Either that or it is once again alluding to someone leading them to the prison
