Four lanes work better than one ban
Official trailers and store descriptions can live in a low-spoiler lane. Gameplay discoveries need descriptive but non-revealing titles. Story moments belong behind spoiler tags in a dedicated channel. Unverified leaks require both a leak label and a reliability warning.
This system protects story-first players without pretending that launch-week conversation can be completely spoiler-free.
The thumbnail problem
A spoiler tag does not help if the attached image reveals the moment. Use neutral filenames, crop preview images when practical, and place a text warning before media.
For clips, describe the chapter or progress point without naming the event. Give readers a real choice before they press play.
Voice chat etiquette
Name rooms by spoiler level and ask before discussing a major mission. When a new person joins, repeat the room’s current progress boundary.
Headphones prevent story audio from spilling into someone else’s room at home—a small launch-week courtesy that matters.
