I apologized and stated that I will refrain from helping or posting comments so as not to make a mistake again. It's that simple. I choose not to screw up again. This is 2 strikes against me and I choose not to make it 3. It's that simple. I give up.
I have posted a request for help in the A Curious Observatory section, and that has not got any attention, yet, me stating that I am sorry and I will not offer any more comments so as not to spoil.... is getting all this unwarranted
attention........hello.......?????
BTW, even without my glasses on, I can see the text in white.
Dear Missy,
my first comment to you about that small section of text that I thought was somewhat of a spoiler, was in NO WAY meant as a discouragement or anything like that. The consequence should really NOT be that you have the feeling you can't say what you want here....or we don't want to hear it or anything. Quite the contrary ! (At least that's my point of view).
All I was saying was that I would have preferred if you had written that certain part of text in white, nothing else.
Of course I second the view that the white text can still be read, if one makes the effort..... BUT - as Toybox has pointed out above:
The white text prevents that an unsuspecting forum member might look over the page and without consciously wanting to read it, is looking at a spoiler. Now, if the text was white, he can always chose not to make the effort to read it.
Please don't feel offended by my initial comment....it has in no way implied that you should stop making comments altogether.
