| | Posted: | | | | I like the idea of the spoiler text being the same colour as the background. I think the "SPOILERS AHEAD" text actually has the opposite effect as your eyes are attracted to it and before you know it, you've seen a couple of words you didn't want to!  I don't like the idea of the spoiler tag hiding the text like the votes are hidden, but if they formed a sort of quote block that had the colours set, it would work well. Setting the font colour manually may work too, but what would happen if someone quoted it? Would it still work? |

***** SPOILER AHEAD *****
In an episode of The Sopranos, they filmed a scene where the closeted gay member of Tony's crew rapes Meadow's boyfriend. By writing this before the episode in which it happened (it was not included in any show), it would need to be placed in a warning so those of us (not me, I like spoilers) who do not like spoilers could skip it.
***** END SPOILER *****
Thank a lot, Cliff. You spoiled that for me.  Actually, I was never a fan of the Sopranos so I couldn't care less about this spoiler.  | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)

If you mean do we need to actually hide the spoiler text or can we just leave it open to see?
Then yes, I think spoiler text should actually be hidden..
