That was clearly deliberate given the change in title. 🙄

he actually changed the thread title to something more specific after he'd posted it too.

pillock.

[edit] I expect he's sat there having a good fap now he's got a reaction 🙄

the fact he's posted twice acknowledging the mistake and done nothing tells us all we need to know about his intentions.

I assume I wouldn't be the only one hoping Mr Whoppit gets banned.

Theres a specific thread for the Tdf and all chat should be on there. Spoilers are contained and people can watch the highlights later when home from work.

Threads like this spoilt it for everyone, especially when it seems deliberate with the multiple title changes.

This forum could be a nice place, but too many people being childish...

I expect he goes to cinemas to watch films he's already seen just so that he can spoil it for everyone there too...

OK, children.

Honestly!

1: I didn't know there was already a TdF thread (apart from the one I posted previously, which had no responses).

2: Thought you might want to know about the bomb, sorry, Froomiage.

3: Excellent keyboard bullying. What heroes you all are. 😛

well you've got some responses on this thread 🙂

the 'official' tdf thread has been in the top 10 all day. You knew it was there.

No one will believe it wasn't deliberate. Especially when you had opportunity to change the title back and chose not to.

It's not an apology.

Mind you, top rate usage of infantile Anglo Saxon throughout, I thought.

From the safety of anonymouse keyboard disguises, of course.

after you'd read the thread and replied at least twice and knew people wanted it changed.

as I said: it looks like you deliberately changed it to start with and then chose not to change it back because you enjoyed the reaction.

generally, wot they said ^

Would that be "TDF spoiler"?

Number 20 and off screen, last time I looked.

Nope that was the previous idiot's spoiler.

This one seems quite clear as to what it's about?

Ooh you are all very precious, actually no you're just cyber-bullies hiding behind the keyboard

So what if he let the cat out of the bag? If you were genuinely avoiding the race you wouldn't be on a bike forum, the radio would be off and you'd be doing some work

Cocks !

Everyone knows theres a Tdf thread 🙄
Realman does an excellent job posting one every day. You must be blind not to see it.

Many of us are fans of the tour and for a GC rider to pull is big news.
Didn't matter if it was Contador, Sagan, Kittel, Voeckler.

ElShalimo - the previous person who made an error got pulled up.

Woppit has got a harder ride because he appears to revel in doing it and have deliberately made a change to introduce the spoiler rather than just got carried away.

It's like walkign in the pub and shouting out the result of some game they're all watching on +1 - peopel will call you a knob if you behave like one.

Well, it seems the "official" item is now so far down the list, it's not even on the first page.

If you're all so interested in it, how come it's not still in the "top ten"?

It still needs a spoiler alert because people might open it not realising it's got a spoiler in it...

And everyone should know NOT TO PUT SPOILERS IN THREAD TITLES for any sporting event - tour or not. Or even TV series, recent film etc.

Well of course there wouldn't be one, as nobody on here is likely to be interested in it 🙄

Of course you can also do some interesting forensic stuff on here. Here is [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/tdf-stage-5-a-stage-riddled-with-dangers-spoilers/page/6#post-6152007 ]post 6152007[/url] this thread starts with [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/dropping-like-flies#post-6152009 ]post 6152009[/url] meaning that when this thread was posted the official TdF thread was 2nd from the top.

No excuses at all - personally I hit that report post button.

I very nearly posted a thread titled Froome Out or something similar - didn't even cross my mind that it would set loose a baying mob.

Glad I didn't now! Babybgoode would have been terrified by the burning torches and pitchforks.

I agree with Woppit et al - if you want to avoid Tour news avoid the internet / TV / Radio / the world until you have seen said highlights...

Only now? I thought that had been established already.

Sorry if I'm not just lying down and letting all these cyber-bullies walk all over me, having the temerity to answer back and all.

Nothing to be "saved" AFAIK.

I think the issue with this thread (there was another with a similar title that stayed calmer) is that Woppit made the change deliberately after initially using a more opaque thread title and then carried on posting on it for some after being asked to change it back. This made people believe his protestations of innocence were less than true.

Yep. I wanted to let people know it had happened.

No you didn't. You said "maybe a title edit?" You didn't say why. Given I wasn't aware of any of these conventions, it's hardly surprising your suggestion carried no impact.

Go on...

Interesting.

Usually threads are closed pretty darned swiftly when there are duplicates of discussions elsewhere.

Both of these threads could have been closed with a link to the main tdf thread.

I wonder why that didn't happen with either of spoilers? Especially when mods seem to have got involved changing the thread titles?

Sadly - this. Which i can only conclude is because when faced with the option of taking the thread down or using it to demonstrate what a bellend woppit can be at times, the blazing pitchforks win every time.
