I dunno - for those who want to hide a part of their question/answer in case there's a spoiler alert. Just a little markdown thing you can add. :3

OR you could put at the top of your answe/question "SPOILER ALERT" in big bold letters, instead of having PM waste his time on coding a button...
There's this neat thing called a tag. With it you can add the word "spoiler" and people will know that there is a spoiler .
Ninja, do people even read tags? Besides, when I look at a question or answer i normally read it before I (if I even do) look at the tags.
I'm not sure about everyone, but almost all senior and semi-senior users read the tags (I do on Meta all the time, I like abusing my Meta re-tagging powers when I can :D). But, putting spoiler in the title is much easier than creating something on Markdown.
I just meant if there's, maybe, a word or two in the question that could spoil a game, but the question is still answerable without spoiling the spoiler.
But okay, tags and stuff can work.

From: My question "Suggestion: Spoiler Warning on posts"

Hey guys I just realized that you can use the new collapsible text thingie I figured out to do this, as long as you know enough basic HTML to do the formatting you need (if you don't, do it in markdown and use this):

Warning: spoiler for new game!
Put your answer here.

If you don't like the fancy crap and don't feel like or don't know how to edit it, just use this:

Warning: Spoiler for new game!

Put your answer here.
