Anime Suggestion: Video/Screenshot threads should use spoiler tags

[A horse of course]

Authentic Aliens Experience: can u tell dark underlord
Authentic Aliens Experience: spoiler tags should be mandatory for all screenshot/video threads
Authentic Aliens Experience: it makes everything so much cleaner
Infinitron: that's an incredible idea
Infinitron: You mean for threads like the Random Video Thread?
Authentic Aliens Experience: video threads in general
Infinitron: not for all videos
Authentic Aliens Experience: e.g. the combat music thread
Infinitron: yeah.
Authentic Aliens Experience: i don't mean EVERYTHING has to be spoilered
Authentic Aliens Experience: but when they're basically 2list" threads
Authentic Aliens Experience: it's so much more convenient
Infinitron: it's not just more convenient, it's also faster
Authentic Aliens Experience: i almost don't want to click those threads because they take so long to load
Authentic Aliens Experience: ya
Infinitron: youtube embedding is laggy as fuck for some reason
Infinitron: I'm actually not sure spoilering them will help that, it might load up the embedding anyway
Authentic Aliens Experience: it helps with the constant resizing of the page at least
Authentic Aliens Experience: i think
Infinitron: yeah
Infinitron: suggest it on site feedback
Authentic Aliens Experience: as for screenshots it's just annoying scrolling past everything, especially if you're looking for a title or w/e
Infinitron: I bet plenty of people will agree with you
Infinitron: You're honestly the smartest person I've ever met
Authentic Aliens Experience: wow
Authentic Aliens Experience: thanks
Infinitron: I think you should be admin

Fairly self-explantory I think. Where there are mass screenshot/embedded-video threads, the title should include the instruction to use spoiler tags. This just makes browsing said threads so much more convenient.

Looks legit.

Anyway, it makes sense and it's surely something welcome, but how the hell you make them mandatory without forcing it on every thread? It should be just poster politeness, not a hardcoded feature...

Ed you post like thirty screenshots a day on Steam and I don't require spoiler tags for those!

Maybe you should!

There are threads on this forum I can't read because they make my browser crash, so I wholeheartedly support this.

I haven't voted, but enforcement seems like a big problem.

 

[Luzur]

make it automatically kick in when you use the spoiler tags then.

[DarkUnderlord]

I highly encourage the use of spoiler tags.

It's only a problem in threads where there are videos in each reply. Even with a decent rig loading flash plugins for 100 streaming videos can be pretty daunting and make your computer chug.

I'd say, one or two screenshot-sized pictures per post is ok, but if more, everything after first should be spoilered.

Video game music thread is particularly problematic, with at least a dozen embedded youtube links per page.

This is only useful if the spoiler tags is lazy (down)loading.
