sg1_spoilme was a Yahoo group that had 6,216 members at its end in 2017. Its peak was in July 2003 with a total of 894 posts. Conversation in the final years focused largely on tie-in product announcements, actor appearances, and discussion of plans for future shows. Despite the title of the group, most conversation surrounded the larger fandom in terms of actor news items, convention appearances, the future of the shows, etc.

Description

Feel free to submit spoilers, news (on shows, merchandise, cast/crew, cons, con reports, web updates, synopses, etc.). Please note that SG1_Spoilme is moderated to keep it in a news/spoiler format-this way you can avoid the fan politics, off-topic posts, spam, etc.

*Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, or any related movies *Any other work the actors or crew do *Stargate related merchandise *Updates to SG1/SGA related websites *Conventions announcements or summaries with SG actors *Summaries / transcripts of episodes *Fanzine announcements (only gen fanzines, pls no adult or slash) *Synopses of episodes that air (new ones)

Goodbye!

This time last year the situation was precisely the opposite. In some areas

  • any* discussion of Daniel leads to accusations of Daniel-centricity,

especially now. This list has a rule about the means of discussing spoilers for a reason.

I find it incredibly sad and ironic that now, on the cusp of a new season we should all be happy about, there remains such animosity against the characters, and between fans.

One doesn't like a list, then leave it...heaven knows we've all done it over the past two years as lists became more like battlegrounds and sides were chosen that precluded the comfortable participation of certain fans. But why make a public statement condemning the entire membership as you go? This list was created because the other existing spoiler list was so rife with infighting one couldn't post at all without risking a fight, I think this one goes a long way toward defeating that atmosphere as long as people follow the rules.

Apologies for going off topic.....

<< I was just wondering and I guess this is directed more towards the mods and owner. What will happen to this group once Stargate has ended?I was wondering if it will turn into something else or be shut down all together? I was just thinking about it while I was reading and posting for another group I belong to. It's a Farscape group and even though the show was cancelled the group still goes strong. I think it's because the group is more open and kind of breezy and people talk about all sorts of things, I know this group isn't like that and is more strict and a spoilers only type thing. So when the spoilers are over what will happen next? >>

Quite honestly, I haven't really thought about it. Guess I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

I might just make it a general discussion group at that point, but also open to spoilers and news.
