Don't care about spoilers. They don't affect me. I view at stories as the journeys, not the destinations.
As far as I know there are two ways how two write a story. One where you write from the start of the story and go with the flow to the end. And the other is where you create an awesome unexpected ending and write a story with that ending in mind.
Most of manga (though not always) is probably made with the first method since it's a rensai based. A spoiler from this type of story is probably wouldn't matter much since the story usually are poorly constructed especially for manga. While reading a spoiler from the latter type--an example of this is The Sixth Sense would deal a great damage even to you. You may not care about it, and probably don't even realize that it deals a great damage to you but they do.
I always consider Writer is like a conductor however instead of music, they conduct your feeling during the phase of the story. In order for a symphony to be played perfectly a certain condition needs to be made. This condition is various in this case lets just say a good musician with a good instrument. No matter how good a conductor is he/she can't lead an orchestra and performs a good symphony.
A writer also need a condition to conducts a symphony in your heart. When a writer constructs a story most of the time they have an image of you as a reader how you would perceives the story in their mind. In order to enjoy the story to the utmost, you have to be in the condition where the writer imagined you would be. Like conducting the condition is various, and sometime it's not easy to achieved such as regional joke which need a good knowledge of a certain cultural knowledges. Luckily the most important condition are easy to achieved. You don't even have to do anything you just need not to know anything about the story or in case of a sequel you just need to have watched the prequel, etc.
This condition is important and it needs to be met. If not met the symphony is going to be out of tune.
For example, If you already read the spoiler of The Sixth Sense, your impression of would be very differrent. The director deliberately tried not to give us any obvious clue during the story in order to develop the moment at the end of the story.
Anyway that's the reason why I hate spoilers.
Worst spoiler moment? When someone starts a thread or two about spoilers.
Hope it doesn't include this thread
