What is not a spoiler?

It seems like almost a paradox to discuss the game without discussing it. Can someone clarify what is considered a spoiler and what isn't?

Right now, it seems a little arrogant to me for someone to come to a forum that does nothing but talk about the game and expect people not to talk about TWD in any meaningful way so it's not ruined for them.

Here's a simpler solution: stay off the forum. Episodes come out like 2 months apart, so it's not like there's much more to discuss anyway about the last episode at that point.

What could you talk about without spoiling it in some way?

"Hey, played TWD?"
"Yeah!"
"Like it?"
"Loved it!"
""What part did you like?"
"Can't talk about that. It would spoil it."
"Um, ok... Let's talk about ep 1!"
"No, it might come out on Android so we shouldn't ruin it for people."
"But it's not even in the works..."
"But they might. Plus, some people haven't bought the game at all. Let's skip the details."
"Ok..."
"Who is your favorite character?"
"I love Carley! She's so..."
"You're about to spoil it. In fact, you kind of spoiled it by mentioning Carley. If you haven't played ep 1 you wouldn't know she exist."
"Fuck this. I'm leaving."

lol

    Exactly my thoughts. You can't discuss anything about the game without spoilers. Hell it's even hard not to spoil if it was only discussing technical issues. "Can't move my mouse all the right of the screen to push the last button in the train"<Spoiler! train? Pushing buttons? Thanks for spoiling idiot!!..

    seriously, anyone with more than 2 braincells knows there are spoilers everywhere. It is impossible to discuss anything without spoilers in a game like this.

    The explicit meta discussion could REALLY be done in the old forum, don'tcha think?

    Oh wait, you put spoilers in the meta discussion. Frick. :D

    Walking Dead related media.

    Events, release dates, merch.

    Speculation & Suggestions.

    Fan fictions, and other fan works.

    IDK, I'm sure the collective masses can conjure more topics than my feeble mind is capable of, and I haven't done too bad by myself.
