To be honest, there's never been enough spoilers posted on this forum to warrant the time and effort required to produce something to blank out spoiler text in a post. We're a fandom for a cancelled show, so we're not prone to seeing lots of spoilers in what's posted here as a fandom for say, Smallville or V, which is currently on air, will do.
The issue of the first lines of a post showing up in the Active Topics section is a different issue though. Clearly, if the odd thread which contains spoilers for active shows is labelled 'spoilers' in its header, people can avoid the spoilers if they wish, simply by not opening the thread.
That's impossible to do if they use the AT section regularly and the spoilers are there and unavoidable.
I'm not tech-minded enough to say if there's a technical way to avoid that, but I'll email Annette and direct her attention to this thread and see if she thinks there's something that can be done to get around that problem.
