    (I'm not sure if this thread goes in episode discussion, but it applies to it.)

    Two questions:

    Should pre-released episodes be posted?
    and should unreleased episodes be posted?

    or should they be prevented from being posted?


    For example, this thread about season 3, episode 10:
    http://www.everypony.com/forums/sho...ers-Season-3-Episode-10-Spike-at-your-service


    Episode ten is (at this time) far away, and people are talking about it, though completely on speculation?

    I feel like something isn't right. I feel that the episode discussion section should be about episodes that have been released, which speculation threads are not.



    If people want to talk about speculation, I feel that it should go in it's own thread. Pre-released episodes are debatable, and I am split 50/50 on them.
    What do you think?

    I think its completely okay, as long as it is labelled something like [spoiler alert] So you can avoid it... I mean its cool to spakulate, but if some of the spekulated tings are right no pony should have read it without even wanting to.

    So they should stay here but always be labelled right.

    To be honest, I don't think we need yet another seperate forum for something that's barely any different.

    As long as it's in "Episode Discussion" I think it's fine to talk about any episode. As long as there's something to talk about whether it's a released clip or summary. It's fun to discuss what may or may not happen.

    Calling it right now, Season 3 will end with all the side characters, The Apple Family, Cheerilee, Zecora, The CMC, Spike, and The New Great & Humble Trixie teaming up to save the mane-six from Discord!

    Back on topic....I got nothin.

    that's why all threads like that have
    tags, so you know they are possible theories, spoilers, or similar.
    Once episode is out (+ let's say one or 2 days) one of mods removes spoiler tags.
