Don't mind me, just playing with the new antimatter chemistry set

Summary

Trying to figure out why I can do a hidden summary

but can only do those eye watering ‘blurred’ spoilers

Why the hell can we hide a summary? Why would you want to?

What is the purpose, point of the calendar…2020-07-13T06:00:00Z2020-07-31T06:00:00Z

Ok I got the idea just from looking at it and it’s useful, I guess?
Bullet points and lists, self explanatory.

Hmm <>…wonder what that does
Ooooh tab stops, that’s pretty cool.

Ok block quote, not sure how functional that will actually be on a phone but still, ok.

Link insertion box, italics bold and show quoted text

Hmm, wouldn’t mind a color pallette and text size slider reminiscent of what was on vbulletin, but not a great loss. I know I’ve seen the tags to use for our rather limited options for text size. Probably miss having the color pallette more.

And the smiliecons. Is it whatever is on your device? :man_shrugging:
Ah there it is, the colon description colon thing. Eh, better than a blank box I guess.
Oops forgot preview shrugger does show up in the post and anything requiring highlighting of text ain’t gonna work too well for me

Well, didn’t blow anything up or reverse the polarity of the universe or convert myself to total energy sooo I guess that’s it

I think the summary is supposed to go where the word “summary” is. So the “tl;dr” version shows up, but the full (presumably long) post is hidden

Long story short, there's a kitten under here

Here would go a whole long-ass story full of details if you’d like to read it, but for testing purposes, here’s a kitten just because I want to see if this works… because hiding images is a way I can see myself actually using this feature. It allows them to be an easy-to-access part of the post without making the whole page look flashy.

… oops, about the kitten. It worked on preview- hiding the image inside the summary- but when I hit “post,” it said “sorry, you can’t put images in a post.” Is this a forum-by-forum thing? Not allowed in ATMB?

It would be useful as another way to hide spoilers if you’ve got a whole block of spoilers. If you want to just obscure one word, though- like “it turns out Spider Man was Peter Parker the whole time- who knew?” it flows a little better with the blur.

Hmmm? Did you do this with your first car?
Hope you weren’t speeding down the interstate while you checked out the bells and whistles.:open_mouth:I love the blur, you crack me up, Dork

*head slap*

It took me two days of noodling this in the back of my mind to figure out how to replace the word summary

Beck darlin how else ya gonna know they work right?:cowboy_hat_face:
Now then, summun hold ma beer an watch this y’all

As far as the blur, SurrenderDorothy, it actually makes my eyes hurt, not hyperbolically speaking. It’s physically uncomfortable as my eyes try to bring it into focus until I click it. I guess it’s not a huge deal, as these things go, but not optimal for me.

Hm! It has come to my attention that I have not experimented with discobot

Discobot menu
Discobot what do you do?

Discobot what do you do?
Hmm scratches head dammit now I gotta go hunt down those commands, saw some running around here somewhere a while ago…

Ah ha

Ahem
@discobot bring me a ham sandwich
That was disappointing

@discobot display help

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.

I said, @discobot display help

Well, that was…

SIGH🙁

I currently know how to do the following things:

@discobot start {name-of-tutorial}

Starts an interactive tutorial just for you, in a personal message. {name-of-tutorial} can be one of: tutorial, advanced tutorial.

@discobot roll 2d6

:game_die: 3, 6

:crystal_ball: You may rely on it

@DorkVader, give it up, he’s mostly just annoying.
I like the @discobot fortune tho’

Rats! Such a jerk.
