Title: Spoiler tags?
Post by: DevilRy on October 15, 2008, 12:48:08 AM
Do we have them?  Do we need them?

We don't have them, and I wouldn't know where to start to figure out how to hack one in (though I'm sure I could)

Just change the text colour to white, and it shouldn't be too visible unless the bbs ever goes white on black.

PS: Please don't ride people about using "spoiler" protocols. If they wanna go to the trouble to do so it's there business. There certainly won't be a forum policy about such petty matters as long as I my reign holds any sway.

Yeah, but some people take the spoiler issue very seriously. I don't mind spoilers at all but I remember writing something about the atmosphere in SMT 3 and I said something about one particular (important) part of the game. The only response was from some guy who told me I should include spoiler tags for such things and I did it. On the other hand people who are afraid of informations (spoilers) shouldn't visit the forums.

It's ok to ask people to use spoiler warnings, but if it get's to be a problem, it's the spoiler tag camp that should be clamped down on as far as I'm concerned. Same for double-posting, and any other thing people get worked up about for no reason other than to make trouble :biggrin:

Btw, if you wanna future proof your spoilers you can go ahead and use [spoiler] tags anyways. Just be sure you put them inside your colour tags to avoid any colouring conflicts :goodnight:

I was just wondering in case it came up.
