@Lilienthal The people "spoiling" it aren't here. If you don't want to be spoiled after an episode has aired, perhaps consider disconnecting from the internet for a while?

@Lilienthal There are many meta posts about this. We try, but there are too many users to account for

Q: Is there a way from keeping GoT spoilers out of the Hot Network Questions?

sgfIs there any sensible way to stop questions whose titles spoil information about new Game of Thrones episodes from appearing in the hot network questions? Not everyone has seen the last episode.

Q: Is it okay to have spoilers in question titles?

JavierI'm currently watching Star Trek TNG. While skimming through the Stack Exchange hot questions list, I saw a question in scifi.SE that spoiled the death of a character. Should I leave a comment telling the OP to change the title so other people who haven't gotten to that part of the show don't hav...

@Skooba Official policy is that the site is meant to police its own questions so yes, it kind of is your fault.

"Why did this character do this in this episode"
What on earth is that?

@Lilienthal Like I said, we do. there is a lot of meta on this
Aegon

Just to appease some people who can't handle spoilers like adults
Again mate, no one "spoiling" it is here. The ones who spoil it are new users
And that gets taken care of by the community

There are only two AGOT questions in HNQ right now aFAIK
