"If only, if only,"
The woodpecker sighs,
"The bark on the trees was as soft as the skies."
While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely;
Crying to the moon,
"If only, if only."

Yeah, I'd still like to add those... but I'm unsure as to what sarcasm tags would do to text. Suggestions?

You should make the text italic, white, and a larger font size.

Size 72. Maybe make the text font Times New Roman for aesthetic purposes.

Condoms aren't always safe, my friend was wearing one and got hit by a bus.

You know, I hear there are some good emoticons that are good at signifying sarcasm.

I bet the golden overlord would like that.

Sarcasm tags would make the text Rainbow colored.

Regular text, but immediately followed by a picture of Nixon smiling.

Serious mode:
It would double underline the text.

[spoilers]Well, it's already implemented into bungie.net. Not that many people know about it though. [/spoilers]
BB code markup glitches are not really an "implementation." Besides that, it's a pain in the ass to have to hit the reply button just to see what you wrote. I think the OP was talking about something more along the lines of the "click here to see spoilers" features on other sites.
That would be the best.

  • 08.24.2012 6:54 AM PDT

I don't see why not, I like this idea.

  • 08.24.2012 7:11 AM PDT

Having actually implemented sarcasm tags defeats the whole purpose of sarcasm tags!

  • 08.24.2012 7:17 AM PDT

I've always thought it would be cool if we had a system like the GAF.

A Strikethrough would actually be very useful, especially for OP edits.

When you make a mistake but you still think people should be able to see it you can strike it through. Or when one question of many gets answered you can strike it through.

True, I would personally like to see it something like GAF, where if just blacks out the text, but when you highlight it, it shows the spoiler. Very simple.

You dont even need to highlight it, took me a while to realise but you just need to click it, or double tap if your using a touchpad.

Also - Sarcasm font

I still just don't see the point though.

If somebody is going to use the tags, then right now they would already just put 'spoilers' at the beginning of their post, in which case you only read if you would have with or without such a feature. And if they DON'T put the word 'spoilers' in the beginning of their post, then they certainly aren't going to use these tags. So the tags seem pretty pointless to me. More of a 'oo fun let's blank out text' thing instead of something needed to be used for its actual purpose.


Besides. Then moderators will need to do a lot more clicking to find out rule violations! $20 says the first thing the Flood does is create a bunch of 'spoilers only' threads.
