I like these warning threads, as it's another way to be an informed consumer. I see the thread, then I know to double check when I pick it up. 99% of the time I look, but sometimes I'm in a rush on my lunch break or whatever, and just don't think to check closely.

People that don't these like these threads should just stay the hell out of them.

My problem isn't so much with the thread, but the thread title. If you want to ask where the ws/fs tag is fine. but to have it "OMG SHREK 2 COVER WARNING!!!111 BEWARE!!!!!!11" it makes it sound a bit over kill.

I'll make sure to start a "Breathing Warning" thread in otter so that I can remind everyone to breath both in and out.

<B>GENERAL MOD NOTE: Please stop the bickering and general attacks on people. If you have a problem w/ how something is posted (talking about people's opinions regarding whether or not people should be "warned" about ws/fs) you don't have to respond. There is a BACK button on every browser I've ever used ;) If something does go over the line please let us know but DO NOT RESPOND in kind.

Thanks

I always appreciate the posts, since it reminds me to check. Not every movie has both versions, so I don't always think about it. I accidentally picked up the Full Screen Lost in Translation. I just never thought there'd be a FS version of it, so I didn't check. The only reason I caught it before opening it was it showed up as Full Screen in DVD Aficionado

Its "intelitext" I think. Roll you mouse over some of the words in posts that are bolded and underlined and you see ads.

Oh and you're very clever calling me a tool...never saw that before -rolleyes-

People's exhibit 1: Yes there most certainly is advertising directly in the posts, it's called "Intellitext." Pay a little more attention.
People's exhibit 2: You posted your juvenile comment directly under a moderator's warning to cease the personal attacks.
People's exhibit 3: You have a grammatical error in your signature line that a 5-year-old wouldn't make.

Verdict: You're not very bright are you?

Ha, well if your that freaking busy then I hope you don't trip over people on the way out of the store. Take your change from the clerk before sprinting out of the store. And don't get into a car accident in your rush to and from BB. It takes a few seconds to look at the specs. "Sheesh" indeed.

Mopower and the others who making statement along this line...

There are rules against threadcrapping and there is no other term for what you've done here. The thread is here to offer information to those who are interested and might make this mistake. If you aren't one of those people and don't care about how the cover is marked, then just stay out of these threads.
