whoa nice trick there Prophet, that might be really helpful for future spoilers. Simply hide the text and hilight it to show.

That only really works well if everyone has the same background color, I've seen other boards that have a spoiler tag that give the text the same color as the background from the style sheet. I have also seen several times where people have done something like make the text super super small so you have to select and copy to read it.

Never do that. It doesn't hide anything from people who have a minimum font size set.

Yeah, it's weird. It works on another phpBB forum (bethesda forums), but no here. Confused me a bit when I joined up here.

So far, the best thing I reckon to contain spoilers is putting text on 0 point. But I'm not sure if that's what Alterecco meant not to do:

The best way to do spoilers I think is we should make the reader solve a riddle to get an similar word to a word in a common phrase whose implied meaning which has each word start with the first letter of the words in the message.

Code: Select all

A man hung himself in a room 30 feet high. The doors are locked and there are no windows. There is no furniture in the room but a sink, drain, and bucket. How did he hang himself?
You should have gotten "I like Pie"
Now that wasn't that hard was it.
It actually does kind of work:

Ice --> Cold Shoulder --> Ignoring loosers I keep eating pieces in exile --> I like pie.

What....? How on earth did you get that? :? And besides, how does a suicidal man relate to eating pie...'cos he ain't gonna any pie now, that's for sure. :P
