Okay, so the End of Act 6 is about to go down in what should be less than 24 hours from now.
A lot of spoilerific things are going to happen in there. And all of us obviously want to experience it for ourselves and don't receive any spoilers from anywhere. That means extra measures need to be taken on these forums.
So this is how we're going to handle this:
I have created an End of Act 6 discussion thread pre-emptively. For now, that thread will remain at exactly 1 post with no replies (just the OP), until the update has actually come. Until then all discussion will continue to go down in the current Comic Discussion thread. Once the update does hit, any comments and discussion about the update should happen in that End of Act 6 discussion thread. In that thread, no spoiler tags are needed. The only posts that are then still allowed in the current Comic Discussion thread are posts to indicate the update has come, nothing else. As soon as I get online after the update has come, I will lock the current Comic Discussion thread and modify the title of the End of Act 6 discussion thread to specify that it has come.
Meanwhile, everything else on this forum should remain spoilerfree for the first 24 hours after the update has been released. That means, don't post ANYTHING relating to the update in any thread other than the End of Act 6 discussion thread. This includes real spoilers (posting images from the update, posting quotes from the update, posting events from the event or commenting on those events), but also fake spoilers (posting a fake image, posting a fake quote, posting a fake event or a comment on a fake event). So don't post any real nor fake spoilers in the IDE/Theory thread or Simple Questions thread either, for the first 24 hours. Don't create any thread with a spoilerfic name either.
This also means, for the first 24 hours your profiles should also be spoilerfree. No spoiler in your username/display name, none in your avatar, none in your user title, none in your status, and none in your signature.
But most of all, I hope you all have a wonderous time watching the update and discussing it!
If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask them in this thread.
