Maybe they got busy, maybe they're eating dinner or something.
It's been less than an hour since they posted the spoiler.
But who knows?

To be fair, the fact they've ignored everyone asking for proof....and randomly threw out something about Hawkwing dying? I'd lean towards not trusting them especially hawking 'dying' would be something so major, literally anyone would spoiler block that. It also doesn't make sense since Hawkwing, in my opinion, has been set up to become the next leader of Skyclan - given his importance in his SE and the importance of his kits. And his mate getting a novella. If they had said...maybe Berrynose died? Totally believable. But Hawkwing?

To play devil's advocate, there's no proof that they are telling the truth either. True, but I feel like people are being unnecessarily mean to this person. Maybe not mean exactly, but it can't be nice for them, to be bombarded with posts of people calling them a liar and a troll. I'm not one to call 'troll!' at folks, because usually I think it's better to assume innocence, but when you've got several people asking for something very simple (literally the cover of the book and one or two pages), and they also have several signs of being a troll, that's when I think things are getting a little sus... 1. They joined only 3 days ago 2. Adding onto them only joining 3 days ago, they've barely posted anything (could be normal, because again: recently joined, but also a sign of a troll) 3. Posted a screenshot of their Amazon order that could be easily edited 4. I don't know anything about shipping fees in Canada, but the book costs $21.77, yet the order total is $61.91 (could be explained away as having cropped out the rest of the order, but again, kinda weird, since that could also mean that the screenshot is faked from an actual order) 5. Gave a death to a character that could have massive ripple effects onto the rest of the arc 6. Ignored multiple people asking for proof 7. Clammed up and said "I don't want to spoil anyone else", as though #6 isn't a massive spoiler within itself 8. Has now gone MIA after being repeatedly asked for proof

It could make PERFECT sense, that she got a novella if Hawkwing died.
Because, what if there's a scene of them meeting again in StarClan or something?
As for the rest of your post, yeah, that doesn't make much sense.

Maybe they got busy, maybe they're eating dinner or something. It's been less than an hour since they posted the spoiler. But who knows? Look, Turnpike. I know that you wanna defend this guy. But it's not fun seeing innocent, gullible kids who post on the warrior cats forums being tricked into thinking their father, Hawkwing, is dead. My issue here is that I've seen this sort of thing a lot. I have been around the block. It is a cruel joke to play on a bunch of children waiting on a new book. I'll fully apologize for being aggressive if they provide pictures. If they provide images, I will write an essay about how presumptuous and rude i am. It will be very funny.

Berrynose dying would be a much happier spoiler Personally, I think him being Ashfur's deputy has put him in prime position for dying (poor Daisy). The one who would make the most sense dying in this book from Skyclan would be our ancient leader, Leafstar

I hope they do post proof soon, so we can get over this all, and move on, and see more spoilers. It's just confusing though...why Hawkwing out of ALL characters? It's just so random, I figure a troll would say someone like Squirrelflight or Jayfeather died.

Hey guys, lets remember that if the OP is serious - great! if they're joking - har har, no biggy! :-) It's not of much consequence either way, and while asking them for proof that they have the book is totally appropriate and warranted (same goes for assuming they're not telling the truth otherwise), name-calling and being generally snarky is ... not so appropriate, IMO. It's made me genuinely uncomfortable to see how people are being treated here.

I mean, it could be true, could be false. I'm a bit skeptical, and want proof. However, calling them a "liar" and "troll" won't change anything. It would be a cruel joke if it was one, but calling them names won't do jack and also makes you look bad as well, especially if they are telling the truth.

Moon - Please drop the snarky tone and attitude. It's unnecessary and immature. Also, please stop insulting other members by calling them by names they wish to not be called. It is tasteless and ignorant. Pull yourself together and take a few minutes to rethink about what you've posted. Also, encouraging such behavior isn't tolerated on WCRP either. If that is what you aim to do, I suggest you take a hard look at what you have posted and realize that you're breaking Forum Rules along with basic decency. Thanks. No, I'm not unlocking this thread.
