Well- Here we are- Only weeks away from the release of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (28 days to be exact- not that I'M obsessively keeping count or anything ^_^). I know that everyone is looking forward to it coming out - but I must ask something of EVERYONE... not just here at TTBS... but anyone that happens to stumble across this site.

I would like to
BEG
E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E
who reads HBP to
!!!!!!!!N-O-T!!!!!!!
GIVE OUT SPOILERS OR HINTS AS TO WHAT HAPPENS IN THE STORY!!!!!

Don't even post little hints like "I'm very sad about what happened to Harry in chapter 23" on the web!! It's ruins the story for people (literally kills it)!!

DO !!!!N-O-T!!!!!! write anything about HBP until at the VERY least a WEEK after its release.

I know its asking a lot- trust me I will really want to discuss what will happen in the book too, but I also want to be considerate and let those who haven't read get a chance to read it for themselves. When OotP came out few years back, I was devastated to learn about the spoilers circulating all over the web (especially about how SOMEONE had died). I was LUCKY enough to have gotten to read the book and find out for myself. I know, however, that there were people out there that didn't have this luck and learned about parts of the book online without meaning or wanting too.

Some people out there won't get the book on opening night like most of us here. Its those people that will have the book ruined for them.

I know you guys will heed this because you guys are cool. I'll also make sure to post another warning just before it comes out too. Thanks guys! ^_^
