spoiler space

   [also  spoiler  spoo  or  spoiler protection] A screenful of blank or
   spacer lines deliberately inserted in a message following a {spoiler}
   warning,  so  the actual spoiler can't be seen without hitting a key.
   Formfeeds  used to be used for this, but are now rare because so many
   people  read  news  through Web interfaces on which they have no good
   interpretation.
