In the tool bar of the editor, there's an icon that looks like an eye, right next to the smiley face. That will let you create a spoiler.

James Kerman Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 4 hours ago, Nigel J. Cardozo said: What was your worst time as a moderator? When I first joined the team I had to merge 2 threads. I was under the impression I had successfully performed the operation until it was pointed out that I had merged into the wrong thread with a similar title to the target. This is a very difficult situation to rectify but thankfully the other moderators were able to fix the problem and I posted an apology to all those affected.

But I'll take a look, deleting pings is notoriously hard at times. Edit: got some of them, @Klapaucius is being stubborn though. Edit2: Thanks to @Starhawk, we have deleted Klapaucious too. I would recommend in the future (speaking from personal experience in the Primes Game) either not using pings in a table, or not using a table.
