Spoiler

This is rather spoiled text if I do say so myself

This is just a temporary thing for the moment - if it doesn't work (or isn't popular) it'll be switched back.

I have to say, that is so much better than the highlighting. Especially with the black banground on the style I'm using where its impossible to see where spoiler text is without looking hard.

I think stand out like a sore thumb for any game spoiler text sees alot of play… (Though if it tracks who's click on the spoiler text it could have some serious value.)

That's pretty cool.

Looking at the PbP games...yeah, you're right. I still like it, though.

Yeah, well theirs no accounting for good taste.

That would require a lot of work. That said, part of the problem you see BS would be solved if this was adopted longterm. Spoilers in the system now expect to be as highlight text. I *think* folks would adjust to the new system by putting all the text that needs to be "spoiler" together.

Anyway, nothings official until P-kitty or Russ says so. I'm just giving this a trial for a few days - it looks interesting. If it doesn't work out switching back is easy enough.

I think it's pretty neat.

If it used the same as the previous spoiler text?

Spoiler

Well, let's see...

And I wonder...

Spoiler

what it looks like if there are multiple spoiler sections

Or how it comes out if your

Spoiler

spoiler text is meshed into

the rest of the message.

That would require a lot of work.

I wouldn't stress it then.

That wouldn't work, I've seen posts that had spoiler text for 4 to 6 individual characters. (and it needs to be that way not everyone is going to observe the same thing.)

I just think it's going to look ungodly...

Cool, I'll hope for the it's only a trial but I guess we will see.

It might be possible to configure it so that only a given user can see the spoiler.
