I know finding a balance between discussing the game and spoiling it for others can be hard.

So if you are starting a thread with info about the game plot or anything that may be a spoiler, please put !! SPOILER !! or similar in your subject.

If it comes up during a thread do the same in your post, and then put enough lines between that and the actual spoiler that it won't show up n screen. Then people can avoid if they feel they want to.

Like so...

!! SPOILER !!

and so on....

Thanks.

You should add spoiler tags. They're quite easy to add, usually. I'm not familiar with phpBB--I use vBulletin--but it shouldn't be too much different. All the BB software works more or less the same.

Just go into your admin panel and find the option to "add new BB code" or something similar to that. Add this code and assign it to [ spoiler ] [/ spoiler ] or whatever you prefer.

Here's the code I use in my board:


It has the effect of putting a black stripe over black text hence hiding it. To view the spoiler text just click-drag your mouse over it. You'll need to change the code to adjust for your colour scheme.

ahh, yeah I've seen this on boards before. I'll think about it, thanks.

Anyone else ... how would you like to see spoilers handled?

the way commie sugested..

I can't easily add code into this board in the way that vBulletin does it.
