Wish I never came to these forums
I know a few people, including myself, who visited these forums today to find out about the demo, only to be met with:
- Major spoilers posted in thread titles / threads
- Bad language everywhere / no moderation whatsoever
Really

Keep in mind we're 3 days away from the game being released, which is the hottest time for this forum to be active. Us mods are doing everything we can to keep things under control, but you can't expect us to be on 24/7; we have lives too. We do this out of the generosity of our hearts...and out of sheer boredom
Agree 100%, the spoilers have dulled my enthusiasm for the game significantly, and since I've read the same one several times (through no fault of my own, it was in thread titles) I presume it must be true. Also dissapointed Irrational didn't come up with a more original story, I mean come on guys...I know a few people, including myself, who visited these forums today to find out about the demo, only to be met with:

All down to the incompetence of Toyr'R'Us or whoever forgot to label the boxes with the street date.
And to the people who deliberately posted spoilers just to ruin other peoples enjoyment - I only hope someone does something equally nasty to you some day. It's sad you take pleasure in causing other people misery, and frankly if that's the sort of people you are you're already destined to have a pretty sad, empty and meaningless life.
Yes but why leave the spoilers on the forum? I see a user under BANNED status yet their comments which have spoilt the game for me also remain.It does indeed suck.

If you are doing it out of boredom and yes we all have lives well then make me a moderator, sheesh I am on this site even at work lol.
I'm on this site 8 hours a day at work, too. I often neglect my own job to make sure this forum is moderated well. Just because there was a lapse in moderation for one night doesn't mean this forum sucks. Just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, I guess.
We NEVER leave the spoilers on the forum. We delete the threads as soon as we see them and ban the user.
Sounds like you need some help controlling the situation.It does indeed suck.

Saying the mods suck when you've only been here in such a short duration speaks a lot about you. The mods were great before this demo business, but since then, it's exploded with new members and only so many mods can keep up. On top of that, the development team is pretty much all on vacation, so the mods are stand-alone for a bit. Then on top of THAT, it's 3 days or so to release; give them a break. Blame the idiots of Rapture, the ones who caused the downfall, not the ones who built it on coral. Lol, coral.
I'm really sorry Dude,this used to be great place,but sadly like Rapture itself it is in decline,so much so that a number of senior members as well as myself have made the sad decision to leave these boards.I know a few people, including myself, who visited these forums today to find out about the demo, only to be met with:

well thats enough to turn me off any bioshock forum till I beat the game Just the chance of seeing a spoilers I don't want to is too much for me...
Without trying to hijack or spam this thread, in the chat rooms we don't have the spoiler issues and such... just general discussion about BioShock and various other topics. You can pop in there if you wish. ( http://bctrainers.homeip.net/bio/ for the chat )
wow this game has been at least slightly spoiled for quite a few people on the forums ive been lucky to escape these spoilers except for 2 one obvious the other one stupid
Yeah the internet is the devil...
