You should have found your way here from the Commenting Experience[1] section of the guide to Reddit and Karma on r/NewToReddit. If you just found this post anyway, you’re still welcome to join in!

What I would like you to do is comment below to say “hello” to me by “pinging” me as I described there, and then simply tell me your favourite movie using Spoiler Text.

To remind you, to ping another Redditor, type out their username with u/ as a prefix, so to ping me, you need to type u/llamageddon01. You will see the text changes colour and becomes a live link to my profile, as well as alerting me to your response. For that reason, it’s important to check the spelling of a username first!

Spoiler Text is a special Markdown command which hides text like this >!which can’t be read without clicking the grey box!<. Many subreddits about movies and shows insist this is used to avoid giving away important plot points, so it’s good to learn this one first.

To make this effect, you need to type >! immediately before your text, then !< immediately after.

Example:

You will type >!Men In Black!<

Which then becomes:

!Men In Black!<

Once you’ve done this, please return to Commenting Experience[2] to continue learning how to comment on Reddit!
