How are you going to protect someone from a thread supposedly full of offensive content by giving them the option to open or not open something when they can have no idea what they're opening before they actually do it?

+ Show Spoiler +It's putting the responsibility on the reader, as a disclaimer. It's the same reason why TL Mods put notes/ warnings on certain threads. This is a thread where you can actually vent and bitch and moan about stupid stuff, just like you and I are doing now, and it's okay  It's not moderated nearly as harshly- it's basically a safe space for us.

If someone clicked on the thread outside of page 1, they're obviously trying to get quick access to captivating stories about exam scheduling. Not unspoil a bunch of shit and figure out where they are in the thread. If the guideline were so important it would have come from a fucking mod, not the OP.
And when people are replying to one another, and you have to unspoil their comment and then unspoil the original and then unspoil the intervening comments and try to figure out... Waste.

+ Show Spoiler +But wait, there's more! A second student response! Goodie goodie! And the two attachments/ previous e-mails...

+ Show Spoiler +Yeah it always baffles me just how clueless/ entitled/ ignorant/ uncaring some university students can be. And this goes for all colleges, from community colleges to large universities to even ivy league schools. I see it everywhere!

+ Show Spoiler +So I've worked until 7 or later each day the last 3 weeks... I worked the weekend (Easter weekend) because this research project our shiny new EVP did is apparently "light". I had commitments all Sunday, so I'm literally toting my laptop around and working every chance I get. I get a call this morning getting bitched out because the sheet still isn't good enough. Why do I get in trouble for work that a senior level guy didn't do? This is just a little absurd.
