You have to use spoilers tags for any episode until it has aired in syndication. So technically that's for all the season two episodes of SGU and almost all episodes of season one of SGU. However, since this thread has a spoiler warning for season one spoilers, those don't need tagging.
It's not one week.
If there's a spoiler warning in the thread title this can change things and if you're posting in an episode/season folder you can never post a spoiler about a future episode without spoiler tags. Even now if your in the season one folder for SG1 you can't post a SG1 S2 spoiler without spoiler tags there.
Safe thing to do, if you're not sure, is to use spoiler tags.
The GW spoiler-rules:
Since our members are all watching different episodes on different stations in different parts of the world (from the U.S. to the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and more), we want to make sure that our fellow fans aren't spoiled about upcoming episode plot or character developments (unless they really want to be!). The goal is to give those who don't want to spoiled the chance to skip a post or thread without reading it.
The rule of thumb is this: If your post has spoilers it must include a spoiler warning, unless the thread (and thread title) already started with a warning for that episode.
We ask that you include a warning (including the specific episode title and season number) and use the [spoiler] tag to hide the relevant portions of text.
The way it was handled here in the beginning of 2010, when I become a member was: the latest episode should be broadcast in the English speaking countries USA (of course), Canada, GB, and Australia (New Zealand?). Those are the countries with an air date within a few weeks after the show aired on SyFy. This season it's only 1 week, the last season it was 2 weeks.
So question is to all of you
strict rules — that means all episodes of at least season 2 in spoiler tags until ??? forever ???
less strict rule — 1 week for those fans which are in GB (this is the last of the countries mentioned above).
I think we should spend a few posts on this question, cos it has consequences for all posts most of us do here. But I would remind all of you, if you go with it, that means no spoiler talk, or spoilery pictures about any episode of season 2 in the future (should we fix than all posts backwards too?) without spoiler tags. I have no problem to do that, if I have to, but I need to know it.

SGU S2 spoilers need spoiler tags. All SGU S1 episodes that haven't aired yet in syndication need spoiler tags. Other TV shows and movies need spoiler tags. If you don't know for sure, use spoiler tags. No single thread or person(s) gets to make the (their own or general) rules. The thread title and first post indicate spoilers, otherwise it's the general GW spoiler policy. General GW forum rules apply.Last edited by Jper; 28 October 2010, 12:51 PM.A black hole swallowed this sig pic.
