I can't decide if i want to change my spoilerfont to a bright color or just leave it. Frank, was it you that changed your's to bright red? are you liking it? or are you finding it hard to skim through things you don't want to read?
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Not even remotely Frank, but I'm really liking having the spoiler font in a fairly pale gray -- it's low-contrast enough it feels a bit whisper-ish and I have to actually stop and read it if I'm skimming past; a bright color feels like it'd be too loud for spoilers, especially in the way they're used conversationally (if that makes sense).
But the best thing is you can play around with both options at will!

thanks, amych. pale grey is probably a good choice. hmmm...i guess it's time to play around.

I love it because if I know I'm treading in the rare territory I don't want to be spoiled in, I can move past it. But I'm mostly spoiler neutral - don't seek them out, but usually don't avoid them.

Me too! They still feel hush-hush, but I don't have to select anything to read them. (Which is very nice on a computer, but made completely of awesome on the iPod Touch.)

Trust my rage
so, I'm on the iPhone now and, to give an e ample, I just tried to read brenda's post in Procedural and I can't see the white font. Which is weird because it was working before.
