for future events, DEFINITELY
but i dont see any problem talking about the changes....
personally, i haven't read the books and would prefer to see nothing at all about them, but if they are going to be discussed then i feel they should be in spoilers no matter what. intodeep's post on the last page is an example- nothing given away (except a future character name) but nothing i as a non-book reader really wanted to know. i knowingly come into this thread facing a risk of being spoiled or at least having book discussion giving some things away, but i'd definitely prefer not to have worry about that.

Agreed. Also, for those of us that plan on reading the books, I feel the courteous thing to do when discussing the books (even something as seemingly innocuous as minor changes between the books and the series) is to spoiler those mentions.

duly noted. I was just under the impression that I wasn't spoiling anything in the show, so it was ok.

I won't be reading the books until the show finishes, which I'm guessing is not going to be for at least another five years. I'm unlikely to remember anything said anywhere on RM in five years time, so as long as you're not spoiling upcoming plot points in the television show I say go for your life.

How about we just refrain from mentioning the books in unspoilered posts?

i agree with everybody: (1) i was stunned how fast the episode went (2) i come to this thread for the show not the books (3) thanks for using spoilers for those that are discussing the books (4) Natalie Dormer is hot-fire
