I woke up late and watched it on Tivo - I stayed away from these boards - fortunately. Really, it isn't too much work just to put *SPOILER* in the subject. I'm autocrossing tomorrow and will watch the race when I get home. What's lazy about that? What about someone who works.

Sorry, we've been doing the Spoiler routine on the Bimmer boards for years, it doesn't stop the conversation, just lets the unknowing stay away untill it suits 'em. Check out the SpeedTV boards - same thing.

 

Spoiler warnings have been a bulletin board courtesy since the earliest days of usenets etc. It's sad that the convention is being ignored these days. It's disheartening that someone would actually 'defend' someone that violates this unwritten rule of shared boards. IT'S KIND OF LIKE TURNING OFF YOUR CAPS LOCK WHEN YOU'RE NOT SHOUTING! WE ALL UNDERSTAND THIS RIGHT? WHY CAN'T WE UNDERSTAND **** SPOILER**** IN THE TITLE?

 

Few S2000 fans are as rabid a F1 fan as I am and I think choosing NOT TO spend five additional
seconds to add the words "spoiler warning" to your thread title is incredibly
inconsiderate. People actually DO have lives outside of the Speed Channel and might
actually be spending the weekend with their kids or painting the house or mowing the
lawn, taking their wife or girlfriend out, etc.
Good grief fellas. I damn near woke the neighbors this morning when Schu mowed
some Imola grass because I knew right then JB had the poll but we can all hoot and
holler all we want within the context of the thread, not in the title.
Kimi is struggling though and it's sad to see. You hate seeing a good horse being
taken out of a race and it seems like the team is going backwards, not forwards. What
a disaster for them this year. One or two more races like the previous and they can
kiss any season-ending podium position goodbye. BAR is getting better while they
are getting WORSE.

 

wow didn't mean to blow it for anyone - sorry... temp housebound w/illness, stir crazy, saw it live and had to share! careless title, tho.. let's hope there's next time so i can just call thread "Jenson's Progress" or something similarly nonspecific... i'll be watching the race live, btw, lots more fun & less chance of some spoiler messing with my time-shifted world...

Live for me means staying up or waking up at 1:30 AM. Sorry, I'll Tivo it! No spoiler like Button Wins Imola now
