Spoilers have become an issue lately so something official ought to be stated and such.
The new policy is as follows:
1. Put in this tag:
| CODE |
| [.spoiler] (Without the full stop!) |
3. Type your spoiler.
4. Close out the spoiler with [./spoiler] (Again, with no full stop!)
Result:
[spoiler]Howdy ho kids.[/spoiler]
To read it, just click the + sign and viola!
I would strongly recommend hitting 'Preview Post' before actually posting it to make certain you have no errors. I will update the rules accordingly and point them towards this post, and will place a link to the post in the Gaming & PC Chat, as well as the MGS:PO and the MGS4 forum.

It’s cool, I’m just happy it was able to be done.
Really, thanks for going out the way and doing this.
SPOILER:
We Love You, Cobb. ;)

Good stuff.
Obviously spoilers are relative; someone else's common knowledge is someone else's spoiler, so do make it clear what's being hidden. I expect the context would be enough, usually.

Ah, no more plot twists should be revealed unnecessarily. :)

Oh, for crying out loud – stop bumping these old announcement topics!
If you have a question, take it to the Help Desk and we will answer your question there!Furthermore, we are only concerned with the spoilers from Portable Ops, in regards to MGS – although, even that is wearing thin since it’s been out for quite a while now.
Still, if you are posting in the Other Talk, and discussing games and movies, etc. – use the spoiler tags then!

^ Something that reveals enough information about something to spoil the storyline for us. ;)

Basically anything that will get you screamed at by a fan for telling them.
Or punched in the face . . . depends how nice they are . . . or how big the spoiler you just ruined was lol.
