I've been thinking about building an F9 game server (OpenRCT? Lua-based MUD? Quake? who knows) and would like to keep it limited to those who are here, even if the thread itself is publicly visible. This is already doable with attachments, where those who don't have the "view attachments" permission just see "You aren't allowed to view this attachment" where the attachment would be.

The idea would be just being able to write "The password is [secret]haggis[/secret]" and have the word "haggis" be hidden to logged-out users.

lua-based MUD is calling to me. I haven't actually played any 👀

it might be good for logged-in users to have some sort of style on the text indicating that it's got logged-in-only visibility

Absolutely! My plan was to have a dotted-line border, or maybe a block-type element with a title explaining it's members-only. I'll make a quick proof-of-concept when I'm in front of my computer.

I got this 50ft hose from the hardware store, so that's gotta get us like halfway there...
