Word came from the boss to try something new and here it is!
THREAD PREFIXES: When creating a new thread, you can now select a pre-made prefix for your subject, if you chose to use one. It will help emphasize your post and save the manual typing of [SPOILER], etc.
Here's what it will look like: (example on overdrive)

It's so easy to use, even a caveman can do it. Just select your prefix from the dropdown when creating your new thread. Here are the catagories:

If you can't decide, just don't use one!
If anyone would like to suggest more, they're a snap to add so feel free to come up with some.
The only thing I don't like about it is how it will display on the main forum page. If the title of the thread is long, the prefix will show up on its own line. I'm looking for a fix.

The advanced search also allows you to search threads by prefix. That's nifty!
So happy prefixing, Doobers!
