@widget I can't seem to locate the post where I complained about something. I have a lot of things I could complain about right now, but I've chosen to remain silent about all of them. You asked a question and I answered it, you requested that I explain my reasoning and I complied. I have not complained.

!centralflbronies Hello just call me Bouncer, does anypony do any physical activities like paint ball or something?
-
@wubbouncer Welcome to the site! Want a hug? http://ur1.ca/a5537
-
@wubbouncer Hey, welcome to RDN!~ :D
-
@widget I'm curious, is it possible for the spoiler button to automatically add the spoiler tag too?
-
@dlcentaur thanxs for the warm welcome
-
@welcomepony who wouldnt want a hug from best chicken
-
@widget thanks for the heads up
-
@colfax Didn't it used to?
-
@toksyuryel No, it encrypts it but doesn't add the tag.
-
@colfax Oh wait I forgot for a brief moment that was a feature of !mintrefresh.
-
@widget When I'm not encoding a spoiler I just delete the spoiler tag. No problem.
-
@widget What @toksyuryel said.
-
@widget It's convenient and helps people who might forget otherwise. You could make the behavior optional.
-
@widget Forget to add the spoiler tag when they post spoilers.
-
@widget Tagging spoilers allows them to be easily skipped past just by eyeballing the presence of the tag, or even hidden entirely by scripts or plugins.
-
@widget "shouldn't decode things" is a lie and you know it. There's no reason at all why people should have to guess whether something that's encoded might be a spoiler or not when there's a perfectly reasonable and simple way of warning them when it is. It's called good manners. It's called being considerate.
-
@widget What does "have their own class" mean?
-
@widget That's needlessly complicated and sounds like something that wouldn't work as intended for API clients and federation.
-
@widget By the way, not sure if this in an issue that is only effecting me or not, but it appears that you can't leave the "Hide tags" field empty.
-
@colfax This was an issue the last time RDN Plus was enabled too. I guess it was never fixed either.
-
@widget There are other reasons someone might want to encode something.
-
@widget Since when am I responsible for your code? How did I suddenly get roped into being a "dev" on this project of yours? Besides, isn't it PHP? You already know I won't touch that stuff. RDN Plus affects all users, and I speak as one such user.
