Game 'spoilers'
I have an idea.  Some people think that figuring things out about the
game is part of the fun and don't appreciate having answers thrown into
their lap, while others enjoy sharing information with everyone.  So,
when you're giving hints that require lots of playing experience, like
when monters appear/disappear, and how to use a specific item, why not
let everyone know up front that's what your're doing by including the
word "spoiler" in the title?  Like, for example
       Subject: monster info (SPOILER)
Wouldn't that be nice?
