As a temporary work-around to this, mebbe you can use the spoiler codes (that are clearly marked spoiler='ooc') instead?
Prolly won't be the same thing but it might do as a decent substitute...

Uhhh...interesting, thanks for the idea at least. I do already use spoiler tags to divvy up various categories in my character-sheets, so I don't know if that would work (spoilers within spoilers on here seem inexplicably unreliable - sometimes they work, sometimes they don't), but could you please clarify how to do what you are suggesting? I'm not sure I understand.

My understanding is that the second tier of spoilers only work if they don't have a title. For example...
{spoiler=This first tier works as normal}Text
{spoiler=This text right here in the nested spoiler breaks things}Text
{/spoiler}{/spoiler}
But instead this would work:
{spoiler=First tier works as normal}Text
{spoiler}<-- This is how you'd do the nested spoiler
{/spoiler}{/spoiler}

I can understand your want to have the aliases work properly. However, they've already said that they're re-tooling the forums -- and in fact, a comment in the recent blog post about the site says that addressing the forums are an upcoming priority. Considering that, it's probably unlikely that they're going to put any work into non-essential fixes for the current forums. I'm assuming it's a low priority considering that the new forums are coming. Soon? Soonish? Next year? Who knows?
I've considered re-reviving my old spoiler text indentation from many years ago, that worked well for a while, fell off, worked again, and then fell off again. They tried to fix it three years ago, but there were issues that made them revert. I feel like the initial indentation from 2016 was a good fix, and I've asked about it numerous times over the years, but I think at this point it's not worth the effort to inquire. I'm just waiting to see what the new forums will be like.

This isn't entirely relevant, but I just recently learned of something funky about the alias pages on this forum. This is probably a well-known bug from years past, but I had never encountered it before. In the ability score boxes, you can only put a number. I was trying to create a PF2 alias, and any of the +4s and +2s I put in an ability score box wouldn't save, but the 0s remained.

Y'know, I'm Hiding In Your Closet, originally I wuz thinkin' something along this line:
but upon thinkin' about it some more... if it's just the weird text color that you'd be wantin' for an ooc spoiler...
how about's something like using a http video link as a work-around instead?

Heh, tbf, I didn't even know that you could put spoilers into spoilers (or mebbe I just plain forgot it could already be done), Andostre. ;)
