spoiled *g*

Pro - I'd love to be able to check for more info about stories, not just because I want to avoid my own personal turn-offs but because I'd like to be able to actively search for turn-ons. Although whether or not that would be possible in practice would depend on how much "spoiler" info there was, of course. Would the new comm be searchable by category-of-warning/spoiler? (by clicking on tags, I suppose?) Do you think it would tend towards the rec/review, as well as main warnings? (just wondering what you think might happen; obviously that would depend on the individual contributor). Personally I suspect I'd probably just have a quick glance at the end to make sure they're both still alive .... *bg*

Con - adds a little extra bother to the act of posting a story (you have to post the story and the spoilers/warnings separately, and then create a link between the two?) and - for those who want to - to the act of checking up on a story before reading it (though not much, in this case - it would just be a click away, iiuc? Or would you click through to the new comm and then have to search for the specific fic within it, which would be a bit further to go)

agh, re-posted because I keep screwing up!
