    Just casually logging into dotabuff as I finally get off my 30 hr shift (yes I got to sleep in between)

    And the first thing that pops up is VP vs. OG grand finals.

    Well I guess I won't be watching any games today. Might as well just skip to the finals.

    Was really looking forward to SG vs. EG apparently it was epic. My friends didn't tell me who won.

    PS: I'm not referring to the thread I saw after making this thread.

                - Blogs will now contain spoiler on/off options to be enabled or disabled.

                    Shouldn't be on log in page.

                    Should be on esports tab where it belongs. Or click on the Kiev major link.

                    Reddit /r/movies or /r/television isn't a banned website for me if I want to avoid spoilers. They have a brain and block spoilers.

                        Notice how even /r/DotA doesn't reveal teams/matchups?

                        Call me dumb all you want. This shouldn't be on the log in page.

                        I understand I might get spoilers from you apes in the forum but spoilers shouldn't be on the official site content unless you click into it.

                          who the fuck cares about /r/dota this is a stats page how difficult to comprehend is that

                              that was just a fuckup by the dotabuff team - skim held his hands up a few days ago and removed some spoilers.

                              don't know why people on this forum think its unreasonable to have a spoiler-free website unless you click on something.

                              every decent community sticks [SPOILER ALERT] on forum topics that need them.

                                Apparently if I go to let's say HBO it's reasonable to see "JON SNOW DIES THIS EPISODE"

                                Arin is just another ape I don't know why I expected rational thought here.

                                          i should have gone for a dentist degree in order to be able to respond smthng to such an insult, but unfortunately i didn't

                                            are u implying dentists are smart?

                                                Its a valid point marlan
                                                That doesnt mean u have to call everyone an ape and stupid and shit cuz they disagree with u
                                                They also have valid points

                                                MARLAN

                                                  What valid points?

                                                  That it's a stats website? How does that make it any better? I come here expecting stats for Dota. I'd be a moron to be angry that I clicked on a match and found *gasp* stats.

                                                  But that doesn't mean there shouldn't be spoiler protection for important things, like y'know the Kiev Major.

                                                  At the very least it shouldn't be on the log in page, where it's unavoidable.

                                                  Essentially what you "non" apes are saying is that unless you want spoilers you are not allowed to use this website, even for non-Kiev related things. lul

                                                    apparently if you go to a game of thrones related forum or thread, you'll suprisingly find spoilers from latest episode
                                                    who would've thought!

                                                    Shou

                                                      ^some people just want to see the matches fast, its a big major, and dotabuff doesn't necessarily want to hide this away in a different tab. however ur right, and it shud have spoiler protection, it shud probably say, "Finals Kiev Major" instead of listing "VP vs OG"
                                                      design wise it is better to keep something important like that within easy access, but those who don't want spoilers cans still be catered to.

                                                      MARLAN

                                                        @arin have you even tried going to a specific sub reddit or forum like that? Any decently moderated ones would have spoiler warnings if applicable. Clearly you have not. Stop talking out of your ass like you know anything about anything.

                                                        And yes, it should just say "Kiev Major - Grand Finals" if you want more information you click on it.

                                                        DC.MASON

                                                          despite your arguments i still feel like your opinion is stupid but i can't think of the way to directly counter atm
                                                          so i'll just quit for now

                                                              yeah, this kinda ruins the viewing value of the games, but i honestly doubt anyone working at DB gives a shit

                                                                the problem is, in 99% cases im right with my feeling because it always has some logical root which i'm aware of, but only subconsiously. so it takes me a while to put it together and figure out the fallacies
                                                                but whatever, i lost.
