    Bob, can you implement the Spoiler feature please? Or am I missing the code for it on here?

    normally it is
    text
    [​IMG]

    and would look like this with the toggle. ->

    [​IMG]


    Would help to stop cluttering some of the threads if people used it. Personally, I would like to use it in my build thread. That way I could put a MOD and then a spoiler with all the stuff I did to achieve that mod. So if people wanted to skip over a mod, it would be easier to navigate.

    really? Not trying to stir up shit, but i feel you sure are making it appear that way. Maybe I am reading to much into it.

    I think it's a great idea.

    We use it regularly over on Badger & Blade.
    Sometimes it's to hide a true spoiler, sometimes it's to hide a photo that some may prefer not to see, but is appropriate for the forum (IE: Extreme razor burn or ingrown hairs).

    Sometimes it is used in OT to hide a punch line.

    Can't say I ever see it used to shorten the real estate that a post uses on the screen.

    More in reference to the WTF thread.

    Damn, seems people are MORE abrasive than usual lately. Completely missed the point. There are OTHER uses for this feature and on 'most' boards easily implemented.

    It's kinda starting to sound like you should just start your own site...

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    that's also why most people on here say "SPOILER" before and after white text. it needs to be intentionally highlighted in order to read it.

    WOW- Why do you think there is a "Site Suggestion" section? Yes, I use the specific subforums for their intended purpose. If a suggestion is turned down. I do not touch on it again.

    I understand both of these. However, when there is already code for it. Just adds to a site.

    Also, the site background isn't really "white" - it is an off blue. SO - on a computer with decent resolution monitor, you can read the "white" text with little to no trouble. On my mac, or in TAPATALK, no issues whatsoever.
