Update: Doesn't work anymore with Youtube's new layout.

Maybe I'll update this in future though.

Update: I hacked up a new script based on this one that does a lot more to hide spoilers: http://teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=66446

Hi guys,

really small thing that's annoying as hell:

Whenever I am really looking forward to a game and take all precautions and avoid all possible spoilers on TL the first idiot on Youtube comments on the winner or something that totally spoils it.

Solution:
- Use Firefox
- Install the Greasemonkey extension:
- Install this script: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/14530

Result:
+ Show Spoiler +

Good idea actually... Let me see if I can hack something.

On a second note... It's propably impossible (hard to) to hide on fullscreen.

I made a Facebook group to bring the HIDE COMMENTS feature back. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=114298895253313

Or search for RE-ENABLE the HIDE COMMENTS FEATURE ON YOUTUBE on Facebook.
