I'm still for separating the threads, because I feel it is the only way to be able to enjoy discussing my favorite shows without having the plot ruined for me.
And fans are already divided -- subbed-only fans are not participating in conversations, so that's half (or more or less) of each show's fans not involved in discussions.
Plus what you will basically have, even if everyone is polite and no one spoils, is two conversations going on at the same time
in one thread. Subbed-only watchers discussing the most recent subbed episode, and raw-watchers discussing the most recent raw episode w/in spoiler tags. I think it is hard on raw-watchers to have to contain their excitement about the latest episode. Why shouldn't they be allowed to squeal and fangirl/boy to their hearts content? We all get a little excited sometimes ... I think accidents would be prevented, and people would feel more free to express their opinions, if the two threads were separated.
Demeter ~ yeah I forgot those "Thanks" buttons aren't anonymous
Weren't they at one time?
