There is no "but".
The rules have been made like this so there won't be any accident and the likes.
Spoiler tags are actually not so practical, because people usually turn offguard when it is -not- in spoiler tags, leading to disastrous result at times.
But the biggest problem with the spoiler tags is the fact that a lot of people do not even bother putting a damn title to the spoiler tags (or use a totally wrong/misleading spoiler tag title), leaving a deadly bomb to anyone who was thinking it wouldn't be a VN spoiler, but a simple theory etc (too much people use spoiler tags as a mean to save up space on their posts, which make things even more complicated.

Furthermore, animesuki sub forums are dedicated to the anime series of any material source being adapted. Therefore, the generic threads were created in order to give a safe place to anime watchers.
By this definition, purging any spoiler is the most favorable procedure, for all circumstances.

As the anime progresses, Please use spoiler tags!
VN Spoilers are NOT allowed, except if they are used for comparison sake about events that have been already shown in the anime (or if the timing has been bypassed with no way to be disclosed later on).These must be enclosed in spoiler tags clearly marked with a proper title. Failure to do this can result in a BAN. Also please be sure to use spoiler tags for critical scenes from the Anime series with a proper title (like Episode X-Y) in order to not spoil people who didn't catch up the latest anime episodes yet.
Rules were clear, and you are to follow them. The guidelines posts of each thread aren't there for the giggles.
