This is a general gaming discussion and people feel bad when someone reveal information of the gameplay and its story. Since the background isn't white and there is not one type of background colors, following needs to be done to mask the spoiler text:

1. Write the text as usual.
2. Select spoiler text and choose font color white in the menu.
3. Select the spoiler text again, including the color tag, and press quote.
4. In the quote box, add ="spoiler" in the first

The code should then look like this:

Code:
[quote]<span style="color: white;">I doing this so your game doesn't get spoiled by reading this</span></blockquote>

Well, loll although it's loads more hassle than just quoting it, you can have a look at the last post before you post your new one, you can then put the correct background colour based on that. :lol:

They alternate like so...

#efefef
next
#E5E5E5

Just use the one for your font colour that wasn't in the last post :D

So for this post, because the last one was the "light" grey, i would use #E5E5E5

Highlight below...

Nasty nasty spoilers!!

So yeah you have the choice to do this or do the simple thing and just quote the bloody text lol :P

I need to find something to do. sorry Tamlin ...... :oops:
