I think this has been discussed but I don't see an obvious thread:

There's still no Spoilers tool? I know there isn't one on the iPad / iPhone interface. But I'm using the desktop browser today, and I see there's no spoiler tool here either.

I'm surprised, since for my tastes, hiding Spoilers is second in importance only to Quoting, and far more important to all the other font formatting tools.

We do have spoiler tags, its just not intuitive. Click the special BBCode button (top row, third from the left) and select spoiler, or you can just manually enter the BBCode. [_spoiler] [_/spoiler] w/o the _

Dave, I was wondering the same darn thing... and further...

I can now hide from everybody that I'm not wearing pants right now.
You know in the UK that means something else. :lol:

We call them trousers, in the UK if someone said pants to anyone it would mean underwear.

The common phrase over here for
without underwear under trousers
is
going commando

Is this going to be added to the toolbar as a standard feature?

Yes. It will be. However its part of a new skin that is being developed. Overall it should look and feel about the same, but should be faster as we are streamlining a lot of the back end code.

I don't think so. They can make a change that will prevent the war from happening, thereby altering the future, but they don't change anything that's already happened in the past. The people in 2022 have already been made aware of the future war and have been sending people to help fight for a while. They don't suddenly "forget" about what's happened by preventing the war as they are the ones who took action to prevent it. It's now part of history, which will be recorded and people will remember into the future. History will now be how they prevented the war, rather than the war itself. The past does not "reset" or flip back to an earlier time.

Spoiler button is on the toolbar. Either click it first and type your text between the tags, or highlight what you've already typed and click the button.

Click the 3 stacked dots and select the mask icon for "Inline spoiler" that looks like this:

inline spoiler

Click the line above to see contents. I thought that spoiler line(s) looked darker or could be adjusted but didn't see that option...
