Please! Not even a character name! Some of us are really trying to stay unspoiled here, but then if we look at a list of active threads, its all over!
Sorry to be emphatic, and mods feel free to delete this thread/post if/when the description of the season 8 spoiler thread is changed....

sorry didnt think a name could spoil anything x :D

It does, especially if it confirms rumors that have been floating around. Can you please edit the description on your thread? Thanks.
In fact, I thought we were going to have a general thread for all season 8 spoilers--perhaps the thread you started can serve as that?

Has the thread with a name in the title been renamed then? Thank-you if it has. I agree that character names can be major spoilers and I'm glad it was only visible while I slept during the antipodean night. IMO it should only be necessary to have threads with the ep and series numbers in the title, plus one general thread for series 8 as a whole.
Once I start to watch series 8 I would like to be able to read the previous posts on each ep soon after I watch each one, so a thread for each ep would be welcome.

Actually, its still up there campgrrls, so squint when you look at the thread titles. ;)
But I agree with you about having a thread for each episode, and keeping spoilers off the individual episode discussion threads.

We are looking into a way to try and get the threads nicely together without having problems with spoilers.

This might sound good, but its often impractical to do - you want to discuss the episode - but often trying to discuss it without giving away a spoiler isn't easy. All it takes is for someone to mention a specific event within their discussion innocently - and thats it - spoiler is in the thread.
As I've said, we're looking into a way to try and allow people to discuss the episodes and lay down the guidelines - we are exceptionally busy today - but we are trying to get it sorted out for this afternoon.
