Ok that stuff is getting annoying. This is just a polite request to refrain from it unless it is absolutly necessary. Otherwise I will find it necessary to make all my posts using the big tag.

I find it ironic some of you were against the Spoiler tag because you thought DELID would abuse it.

THING IS WHEN I AM READING THESE FORUMS I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO HIGHLIGHT A BUNCH OF TEXT EVERY SO OFTEN THAT COULD HAVE JUST BEEN SMALL AND SERVED THE SAME PURPOSE. IT IS BEING USED FOR TOO MUCH FOR MY TASTES AND THUS I AM GOING TO PROTEST AGAINST IT. IF A MODERATOR ASKS ME TO STOP THEN I WILL, HOWEVER THIS IS AGAINST NO RULES AND UNTIL I SEE THE USE OF THE SPOILER TAG IS REDUCED THEN I WILL CONTINUE TO POST IN THIS MANNER.

SO NEENER.

Oh, and by the way - just because you say it's a polite request doesn't make it so.

Especially when you include a "threat" at the end.

I hope you realize that people use it for minor information that really doesn't affect their post, or because they're posting a legit spoiler than majority of the people will have problems with seeing.

Sorry the world can't cater to your wants.

I have to agree with the Furb. That's what small is for, except when it's a legit spoiler.

Like the WA3 thread that WAS spoilers, and the idiots coming in and using the spoiler tag just to be stupid.

I don't have to agree with his methods to agree with the idea. The spoiler tag is used far too much. Which is exactly what was the fear when there was talk about Drys implementing one, in fact.

The small text is not for spoilers. The spoiler text is for spoilers.

Think about it. How is this worse than OMG OMG SPOILERS AHEAD BE WARE BE WARE...

I amended what I said. When it's a spoiler, okay. But 75% of the things that the text is used for are *not* spoilers.

It's not that hard to tell when the black box is a spoiler and when it is not a spoiler.

Ask yourself a few questions before you read the post:

1) Is the conversation about a movie, video game, book or anything with something remotely resembling a plot?

2) If I raise a big fit about not being able to tell the difference, will I look like a complete dumbass or a complete jackass?
