Spoilers have been a prevalant issue in the brony fandom since at least 2013. Be it plot points, scripts, or even entire episodes - there's been at least one major leak in every season since season 3. And while some don't mind the spoilers and some abhor them, it's actually not a subject that's been talked about very much in the fandom as a whole. Thus, we were more than happy to take up the challenge when Silver Quill posed the question as to whether or not they help or hurt? And with such perfect timing, as the movie meant to kick off the start of Generation 5 has aired on this very day. And since the script had leaked a week earlier, and some international releases came out early, spoilers have been everywhere. Be sure to let us know what you think.
