Spoilers

Post by Sonic Glitch »

I have something you may want to consider: I spend some time reading the gateworld.net forums (Stargate), and occasionally threads will have spoilers for upcoming episodes or past episodes that people may not have seen yet. I've noticed here when discussing movie (especially new movies), there tend to be some "spoilers" in posts. On Gateworld, for spoilers they have a box which look much like the "quote" boxes here, but they can be hidden. You'd see a "spoiler" button and just a colored box below it, if you clicked the button the box would expand and you could read what was in it. I don't know if it can be done with this set-up, but it may be useful?

I've seen that on other forums. No idea if this forum supports it.

Do we need it? I mean, isn't it just easier for people just to write "here's some spoilers...."?

That seems to have worked so far.

Or just post in a dark text that needs to be high lighted.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I'm pretty sure this can't do that, but I can look into it.
