I really need to download a clip of Chandler's proposal to Monica in "TOW The Proposal" for this CD I'm making with songs from the show (songs that were actually used, unlike the first "Friends" CD), and I'm putting dialogue in between, as well as Phoebe songs. Any ideas about where I can go for a WAV or MP3 file of the proposal?
If you can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.

No, but perhaps you should change your name to Mike the Real American Asshole. This is a spoiler, and should consequently have spoiler space. Not just a weeny ickle spoiler but a great big clumping elephant dung one. Please don't do it again.

And maybe you could change your name from Jacqui to Jac-ass.
And don't worry about me doing it again. I don't plan on coming back. A simple, "Please use spoiler space" would have been enough for someone that forgot.
It's too bad that there ARE some nice people here.
You people are acting like jerks. It's not that big of a deal, is it? It wasn't like it was purposely done to spoil the finale for And I don't think you need to act like a bunch of condescending know it alls who own the group , when 99% of the Friends fans know what happened already. For goodness sake, it's aired 4 times in the US already! I'm sorry if you're so terrified of spoilers, but you have to realize that spoilers ARE going to be posted in here next Thursday and most of them are not going to be intentional. If you have had the opportunity to see the finale aready then you have no right to expect the rest of us to simply keep out mouths quiet for 6 months and worry about every little thing we say having a potential spoiler in it. Sucks the fun right of the group.
I'm sorry, but I think Mike is a pretty nice guy, and he didn't deserve to be flamed like that.

Spoiler space here is a COURTESY. This is not a dictatorship. One of the risks of reading this forum is that sometimes spoiler space is accidentally left out. With this kind of rudeness, why would anyone take care to be courteous any more?

accidentally
I just want to say that some of the people in this NG have become more and more rude and inconsiderate for others feelings. When someone does something you don't agree with you don't have to jump down their throats and treat them as you are better than them. I mean come on people. I'm not going to point out the people doing it because for one that would be rude and another they know who they are.
Forrest Gump mode on Momma always said if you don't have anything good to say than don't say anything Forrest Gump mode off

Jacqui & I are not jerks and we're not acting like jerks. We have both seen the finale, but millions of fans in Britain won't get their chance until December, and there are countless more millions in other countries around the world. Nobody is telling you to keep quiet, just use asking you to use some spoiler space, which doesn't ruin anyone's fun.
Yes, Mike is a nice guy, but come on, Jacqui didn't flame him, she was just a bit annoyed - I'd have been bloody furious. I went to enormous lengths last May & June to avoid having the finale spoiled, and in the end I greatly enjoyed it, which could be part of the reason why.
Tennant
She called him an asshole Tennant. He didn't do it on purpose, so I don't think she should have been so harsh is all. He's a regular and it's not the first time that I can remeber, this spoiler has been posted without space. I'm sorry truly if it was ruined for anyone. That's usually never the intent of a post, to spoil an episode. Still it was only one particular part, and not a full blown spoiler that described the episode in any kind of detail. (Did we get to hear her Answer, what circumstances did he ask her?) And remeber Chandler had actually proposed to her before this episode, a person might not even realize that this was a different proposal.
Also, there are newsgroups for those who aren't up to the same episodes that North America, so if you are going to subscribe to this newsgroup, you should realize that a lot of people are going to want to discuss what happens on the show. When something critical happens (say if R&R get together again) then I don't see how it can be kept a secret. If it's not getting spoiled in the newsgroup, it's on some website, or entertainment tonight.
It just seems a little unfair to criticize us for spoiling something that aired over 4 months ago. It's hard for us to know which area of the world is on what episode. It's even more confusing to remember most Brits haven't seen it because you and some others have seen it already. I completely agree that space should be used right after an episode first airs, but I think it should become fair game the second time it airs.
You have to realize that spoilers are going to be posted inadverdantly here and that is one of the risks of participating in a newsgroup. I don't see how yelling at a regular poster helped any. Instead of teaching him to use spoiler space (which he has done in the past, he just happened not to realize it this time), all it did was make him mad and want to leave the group.

Me too! So Mike didn't use spoiler space, which wasn't courteous of him, but then how polite is it to call him an asshole?

Folks, you do all realise that we're running the risk of a repeat of the Spoiler Police fiasco again, don't you?

Oh, yeah. What happened with that anyway? I remember it starting... but then my computer died and I didn't get newsgroups for a while and when I came back everything was gone.

There is a newsgroup for North America, alt.tv.friends.northamerica, while alt.tv.friends is for the whole world.
There's no point in explaining to a fan who's just had the season finale ruined that the perpetrator did not mean to do it.

"Tennant Stuart" wrote in message news:[email]...
Yes and seeing as most of the people that see it before those that don't, they have the courtesy not to discuss it openly and they use the spoiler space.
Well if that fan can't realize that people do make mistakes then they shouldn't be coming here. It's not like Mike got up and said "Hey I think I'll go post a message and leave out the spoiler space so the season finale will be ruined for everyone that hasn't watched it". I mean come on. It was a mistake, which I'm sure he probably won't do again so give him a break!
Let me just jump in and say that I hope that this ng will never return to what it was back in April/May... *shudders*

Awful, just awful. We had tons of trolls determined to ruin the season finale by spoiling the entire thing for everybody. It got so bad that most of the regulars who didn't want to be spoiled had to leave the group for a couple of days. The rest of us were flamed by the trolls. :(

Tennant, Mike did not purposely leave out spoiler space yet he was called an "asshole" as though he did it on purpose. Why are people so quick to assume that what he did was malicious? If people are going to be ugly about this then why should anyone put forth the effort? I have been careful in the past to leave spoiler space but this makes me not care so much any more.

Never assume because you only make an ass out of u and me! And I think the people that have seen the episodes should be shown some courtesy for not just coming out and saying what has happened. And if you are going to get soooooo annoyed by someone accidentally leaving out the spoiler space then don't come here anymore then there wont be any arguments. That's my take on it anyway! :)
