If there is evidence for X in MOR and/or canon then it’s fine to post about X without rot13, even if you also have heard privately from Eliezer that X is true. But you should not post that “Eliezer said X is true” unless you use rot13.
Oh, I guess I can post this then: V jnf ng n jrqqvat cnegl guvat n srj lrnef onpx jurer Ryvrmre pbasvezrq gung lbh pna’g yvr va Cnefrygbathr; gur engvbanyr tvira jnf gung Fnynmne jvfurq gb sbfgre pbbeqvangvba orgjrra uvf urvef. V’z abg 100% fher V’z erzrzorevat pbeerpgyl ohg V’z cerggl fher.
Kindly refrain from using rot13 for comments that do not fit the rule given in Will’s comment above. The rule is there for a reason, and you are reducing its reliability as a tool for avoiding spoilers.
Sometimes, certainly. I’m not sure it would work well as a general policy. People may rot13 things incorrectly, or may rot13 a post only some of which constitutes a spoiler. If that gets passed along to all further comments, it’ll cut everyone who avoids spoilers out of the discussion. Your comment, for example, is interesting, and led me to look up Bane’s Rule of Two, but I would not have done so if I hadn’t suspected that yours was an incorrect rot13 to begin with.

I’m wondering what Salazar would make of Bane’s Rule of Two

Okay, fixed. IMHO it would make more sense to rot13 hereditarily.
