You were deliberately posting a spoiler. Worse, you posted it for a
soapie (y'know, the crappy shows that people only watch for the
*surprises* you've just robbed them of).

Idiot.

TV stations don't put the ad on every break. TV guides don't put the news on
the front cover. Matthew Goodyear posts a message with the wrong date so it
stays on top and everybody can see it. Purely to piss people off, no doubt.

Do you even _read_ the messages you reply to? Where does the phrase
"Way to include spoiler space, trollboy.." indicate that you can't
discuss an Australian show? Maybe posting spoilers without spoiler
space doesn't make you a troll, but it does make you an inconsiderate
arsehole. Your choice...

Oh great. I haven't watched it in weeks, and was looking forward to seeing

So what?

The fact is you included spoilers in a post, with no warning, let alone
spoiler space, plus, even worse, in the subject!

Whether it's appeared in other media is irrelevent (btw this was the first
I'd heard of it).

It's called basic netiquette. It's also been discussed in this newsgroup,
and probably any other media-related newsgroup you've ever read. There's no
way you're not aware of the issue of spoiler space (let alone putting it in
the subject!), so either fess up as doing it on purpose to piss people off,
or admit that you did something stupid and let these threads end. Either
way, by continuing in this manner, you're just digging yourself a deeper
hole!

Um, what has a charter got to do with it? Spoiler space is one of the
basic courtesies in any newsgroup. Maybe you'll be wanting to take a
break from posting for a while until you learn a bit more about using
Usenet responsibly...

That attitude, right there, explains why you're such a bad typist, have
such little regard for the niceties of grammar, and refuse to accept
netiquette[0].

What year? What timezone? What *time* in comparison to everyone else in
*your* timezone (not the timezone you've set it to)?

[0] Yes, okay, you're QA-posting[1]. But you're quoting too much (inc.
sigs a lot of the time) or too little (many unattributed snips),
trolling, using the "detached from reality" "defence"[2], constantly
avoiding killfiles, and refusing to stop touching your cock... er,
clock.
[1] Which is more than most aus.tvers can do.

that, and not at all as clever as you think it is.

Many ISPs require you to follow the rules set out in a newsgroup (though
only a few will term someone for refusing to obey them).

But, in any case, what does an ISP's TOS have to do with netiquette? You
don't follow netiquette because your ISP tells you to. You do it because
you don't want people to see you as a dickhead out-of-hand.

Matthew, this isn't a playground and you're not five years old. Either you're
aware of basic netiquette or you aren't. _Either_ way there's no argument
you can advance which doesn't portray you as either a troll or an ignoramus.
As I said in an earlier post - it's your choice. I'd just shut up, if I were
you.

Actually, I was serious. However, if you wish to continue flaunting your
ignorance, immaturity and, often, just plain stupidity in front of a
world-wide audience, be my guest. I just hope for your sake that you're

your inability to demonstrate that you have any grasp on, ethics, humor,

Actually you are right, that was a stupid thing to say, the chance of you
being able to fill in the 'dole book' is so slim you wouldn't have a chance
of getting the dole.

That comment alone proves you to be an idiot.

Looks there is some inescapable logic for even your twisted insane head. One
of these two possibilities, has to be the right one, there is no way out.

1: You have been around this newsgroup long enough to KNOW people don't like
spoilers posted in subjects and/or without appropriate spoiler warnings.
Hence by posting what you did you were trolling to create the furore that it
eventually did.

2: After being around this newsgroup as long as you have, you still have no
ideas about netiquette in general, and the netiquette specifically relating
to this group. This would make you an ignoramus of the highest order.

As I have been saying for a long time, you are either and ignoramus or a
troll. You pick which one.

Hate to say it but you're talking to a very. very thick brick wall.
Matthew knows exactly what he is doing (despite his childish and boring
repeated remonstrations to the contrary) and really couldn't give a
rat's arse what others think, because in Matthew's Usenet (tm) only
Matthew really exists or matters, we're just here to make up the
numbers. If you gave this devolved whatchamacallit a blank cheque and
set him loose in a clue store he'd still exit the checkout empty handed
- and would probably do so deliberately just to piss people off (a
favourite pastime of usenetters without worthwhile lives).

Given that he can't keep a consistent email address (I've endeavoured to
killfile it many times and it morphs over and over) and time zone (a 20
second operation even in an "arcane" setup like mine) I'm
astonished he can operate a computer at all, let alone post to usenet.

If someone would just go an put an axe through his PC (preferably
multiple times with a large pick-axe) aus.tv and the world would be a
much happier place.

(Or as an alternative put him on an ISP run exclusively by BOFHs -
"your posts not propagating Matthew? <clickety-click> Must be the
upstream feeds" <clickety-click>")

And how many people here actually read TV Week? Whether or not something's
already been in some media is irrelevent to the issue of spoiler space.

You'd think so, but I've seen info printed that spoils the storyline a
number of times. Plus, I used to work for the company that does most of the
TV guides in Australian papers, and the info that the TV stations sent us
often gave away fairly vital stuff!

Ahhh, so you are actually admitting your antics are moronic? That's a

Oh shit was that really you?

I saw it came from optusnet and thought it was one of your numerous
admirers.

In that case - put some fucking spoiler space in for those that don't
want to know about an upcoming episode - especially when you post to a
group like alt.tv.home-and-away which surely has participants who are
further behind in the schedule that aussie viewers.

You posted something with the common courtesy of spoiler space. Be a
man and admit that at least.

That is what you said last time you didn't include spoiler space. Did
you a hard format of your brain and lost that nugget of information?

Decent, normal people post spoiler space if there is any chance that a
devotee of the show might glimpse something that will ruin his/her
enjoyment of an upcoming episode of their favourite program.

Think you've got problems? Here in the UK we don't see it till next
*year*! Please folks, remember that a.tv.h-a-a is *not* just read by
Aussies - either keep Aussie-specific stuff on aus.tv only or stick a
spoiler warning in. Cheers.

coming from an aussie I don't see why Aussies have to post spoilers when
discussing current topics going on in a show that is from Australia, as I
have said before you don't see people requesting that a spoiler be posted
for say a US show that we are behind in, you should come to this newsgroup
being aware that you might find out stuff you don't want to know, and yes I
know people from the UK think that they are keeping the show on the air and
yes I know this newsgroup was started by someone in the UK but I still
refuse to post spoiler warnings about current issues as seen here in AUS,
not that it matters as I am a lurker anyway (most of the time).

Hey Matthew keep up the spoilers, although I don't always believe you
anymore not after the whole Ailsa thing.... not to worry. ;o)

Of course, most of us know that he's deliberately being a right dickhead,
plain and simple. For example, I find it extremely difficult to believe that
someone such as Goodyear, who has the ability to hunt down and apply
software cracks, who can set his usenet program to use the "X-No-Archive:
Yes" header, and format his hard drive and reinstall Windows, can't for the
life of himself work out how to double click on his taskbar to bring up the
time/date dialog.

You weren't reporting, you were spoiling. Now I don't give a flying fuck
about this show, but I'd expect the same courtesy for the shows I watch. Is
it only a matter of time before you spoil them too?

He knows you consider money (absurdly capitalised as "Money") to be more
important than all but family.

No, it's a confirmed troll, and reacting to him/her would only cause the
survivor spoilers to continue.

That's why many of us didn't say a word about your blatant disregard for
acceptable behaviour until we discovered it wasn't someone impersonating
you making the OP.

It tells me you're a fucking liar.

Unless of course you posted the spoiler solely because we were "act[ing]
like cunts". Because, Matthew, me ol' China, I'd consider deliberately
posting spoilers *in the fucking subject header* to be "acting like a
cunt" (as you so colourfully phrase it).

There's a big difference here. the people spoiling survivor aren't regulars
here, and are mostly anonymous trolls. It would be pointless to attack them.
However, hope springs eternal that one day you'll learn.
