A spoiler is anything that reveals atau "spoils" information for a person before they would see it naturally/ideally. For instance, anda can "spoil" a surprise birthday party for someone sejak telling them that there are people waiting for them at home. anda haven't actually told them what specifically is happening, but the surprise, when it comes, isn't really a surprise anymore.
With fiction and TV and film - really anything with a narrative - a spoiler is revealing key plot elements before someone has read/seen/heard the whole narrative leading up to those plot points. In a mystery book, a spoiler might reveal who the murderer was, atau that a key character dies, atau how the book ends. In a TV tunjuk atau film, a spoiler might be identifying who the double-agent is, atau that a telah diberi couple which has spent much of the tunjuk flirting actually kisses in a telah diberi episode, the setting of a telah diberi episode, atau even particular key lines from the show. If it's something important to the story and everyone who hadn't seen the story would not be able to anticipate that the telah diberi thing would happen, then it's a spoiler.
Time does not play a role in whether something is a spoiler atau not: if it's a specific important plot point, it will be a spoiler to somebody, whether the story was released a hari lalu atau 80 years ago. I almost got into a fight in a movie theater once when a trailer for the film Citizen Kane was played as part of a revival. anda may atau may not know that the whole film revolves around figuring out what Kane's last words meant. This jerk in the audience yells out "It's his ___________!", thus spoiling the film for the entire audience - hundreds of people. My Friends had to hold me back from dragging this guy outside sejak his nose hairs and beating him unconscious.
So the Fanpop staff have realized that people want to discuss these surprising plot twists, but that everybody who hasn't seen atau read that far doesn't want it spoiled. Therefore, we have the "This pick is a spoiler" option, and users are encouraged to mark forum threads, artikel-artikel and the like as "spoilers!" whenever there's a discussion of specific plot points. Sadly, there's no way to do this with images.
