This is an interesting idea.

One question though: If somebody clicks on the "Quote" button won't they be able to see your hidden BBcode?

Yes, you have to remove the quote option, don't know if Hol thought of that ??

[Highway of Life]

Hmm... I hadn?t thought of that... thanks!

Okay, so on topic review in posting page, the quote would disappear, and on viewtopic the quotes would disappear on the posts that have the [hide] tags... correct?
One thing though, a user could still quote the text/content, there is nothing I can really do about that...
Any ideas?

Yes after replying/revealing the hidden content, the user can make a re-post/reply with the revealed content, but no they wont do that, and if so the Warning MOD kicks in

I just thought of a couple more things...

In a case where the hidden information could be revealed, it would be best to use the thank-post MOD function.
and/or not allow edit-posts to be performed.
