I'm certainly not expecting the forum's policy on spoilers to change as a result of this, but I did find this Wired article about how spoilers don't really spoil anything rather amusing.
In fact, the study indicates that people actually tend to enjoy stories more when the ending is spoiled for them. Personally I don't really get the frantic avoidance of spoilers, but I have to confess I was a bit surprised to find that Usagi also sometimes skips to the end of a book or reads spoilers about a film before investing time in following it all the way through.

when there's a cool bit in a movie trailer and you spend the whole movie waiting to see it
but it was cut from the finished film
and you're kept in suspension until it's over and then you're let down
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
Even if I do figure it out myself halfway through
But if someone had spoiled any part of Harry Potter for me, I would have been so cross.

Yeah I won't avoid seeing a thing if I've had it spoilt, but I definitely feel like it takes away from my enjoyment.
I've experienced this in HBO shows, and animu where I read the manga first, etc

I am simply not one of those people. At worst spoilers do nothing for me, at best I actually enjoy it more, because I know what sorts of nuances to watch for.
That said, Fight Club-level twist endings can lose a lot when they're spoiled, so I understand that.
And then later I'm watching the thing in question and suddenly remember "Wait THIS guy is the one that gets killed soon?"
Okay that only happened like, once but it bummed me out.
AND THEN THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
but it was alright, I guess, because there are a ton of other nice twists and reveals in that game
Same.
I guessed the secret in Moon, but when I watched the movie I was pleased to find that the secret was revealed like 20 minutes in and the whole movie wasn't a build up to it.
See, generally I sponge up spoilers. There are exceptions, things where I go "alright, for this, I go on blackout.", but generally?
Spoiler city.
And Moon is great in its attitude towards these things, yeah.
Why I fear the ocean.
Also, he was Hitler all along.
This conclusion on your part was already spoiled for me though.
Secret Satan 2013 Wishlist
There are plenty of things I've enjoyed or appreciated more the 2nd or 3rd time through because I knew where it was going and could see how things were playing out, but that's what a rewatch or reread is for.
