Security should of had AK-47's, dessert eagles and hand grenades.

All books should of been fitted with anti-opening circuits which were attached to a C4 device which detonates if opened before the 21/07/07.

=D

I have to ask since this has been bothering me for a while ...

Why do people do it?

Why do people feel the need to spoil the books for others? I mean, alright, we're all grown adults - or almost-grown adults - so we can deal with it. But kids read these books. Do you people get some kind of perverse pleasure out of ruining the ending for others? You wouldn't take candy from a baby, so why do you do it? Or are you just impatient? People log onto the internet and someone's claiming to have a copy of it. And unfortunately, sometimes it's genuine. Do you just have to be the first to have read it? Or is it something deeper than that? Are you so insecure that you need to show off by spoiling the books? Other people enjoy them; other people are happy to wait for the book to arrive and to have somebody ruin the ending two or three days in advance is just disgusting. Whatever it is - and it doesn't matter if you're doing it to have a laugh at someone's expense, whether you have to be the first to have it or whether you're just looking for bragging rights - whateve it is, you people are just bloody selfish. You clearly have issues. Deal with them somewhere else, thanks.

Exactly. I mean, the fact that someone actually bothered to photocopy all seven hundred and whatever pages just makes you ask WHY people are so set on ruining it for others.

I don't know when I'm getting my copy lol. My mum's buying it for me. I can't wait to read it. But I literally can't read it till after the trials. (only 2 weeks argh) ha all the ppl in my class who are getting are all waiting till after the trials so no one can spoil it for everyone else.

Because they are uneducated. They weren't taught properly about decency, their parents were probably fucked in the head too. It shows in what they did - how dumb they are? Haha

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - 21 July 2007 (NO SPOILERS)

This is the exact same one as the spoilers i got! But overall was pretty good lol

Oh well it was fun..now no more HP

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - 21 July 2007 (NO SPOILERS)

it was sold out completely where i was

 

[Raven3333]

Yay I can finally sum it up for people that can't be bothered reading it.

-Harry get hit with the killing curse and lives to tell the tale again (go figure)
-voldemort kills himself accidnetly
-snape is good and killed dumbldore on his orders
-Mrs Weasly kills Beatrix
-Dobby get impaled
-Mad eye dies
-Fred or George die ( honestly can't remember which one)
-Ron and Hermine get together
-so does harry and ginny and they have 3 kids 1 named after dumbldore
-Draco turns good? sort of
-Tonks and Lupin have a baby however they both die
-Wormtail dies after saving Harry

Felt good to get it off my chest considering I read the book 3 days ago. The photographed carpet version of the book circulating round the net is the real deal.

 

[$hiftyIceQueen]

yay

Lol totally agreed with the first point! Harry dodging the killing curse twice is a bit extreme, but he was a horcrux!

And you left out the most important thing!! Severus loved Lily <3

The names of the children was nice, very expected, but i loved the 'Albus Severus' one!

I think it was Fred that died But i honestly did NOT like the way Severus died.

Haha i read it today then told my brother that Harry dies

 

[bubz :D]

Oh god. I just spent over seven hours straight sitting in the same spot. My neck is killing and my eyes resemble ._.

Some quick thoughts
- Several things that I'd been thinking about came true, much to my surprise... e.g. Lily/Severus, and Kreacher going into the cave with RAB

- A bit confused about the whole Hallows thing, will need to re-read

- Fred Mad-eye Lupin Snape Tonks Dobby etc etc

- Go McGonagall! Always loved her... and Mrs Weasley for killing Bellatrix

- Yay Draco... still a slimy git though

- I thought the naming of their kids was a bit cheesy but eh.

- I still think of Ginny Weasley as a little kid for some reason, I think it's cos I keep picturing the actress that plays her

- I'm very glad I didn't get it spoiled for me

 

[$hiftyIceQueen]

Haha my hand and neck hurt after i finshed it!

ok this may just be me, but the deaths seemed so stupid. Agreed about Ginny, as for Draco well he was a bit shit [stupid JKR!]

But i can't get over Ron being a retard from the start of the series to the very end!

 

[AsyLum]

The reason why people spoil it, is because of the reaction they get from people. Nothing more, nothing less.
