What about "No Opinion"? I thought it was heavy negative until I tried
submitting it and investigated why it had no effect.

OK


  ° Highlight      Recommend for highlighting with a ° symbol.

  °° Spotlight     Recommend for highlighting with a °° symbol and also
                   for inclusion in the LUGNET Spotlight page.

What if you really dig a message, but you don't think it's relevant to
the spotlight - ie - a message on this current topic? Would it be okay to
use 'spotlight' then? Or is 'spotlight' only for those messages that you
truely and honestly believe should go into the spotlight?

Is 'Spotlight' saying "This message should be in the spotlight", or "This
message is so great it is spotlight-esque in its funkiness"? Those are two
different things to me.

I'll have to find a way to clarify that.  It's supposed to mean, "I recommend
that this message be included in the LUGNET Spotlight page."

OK

Clarification:  that means "OK, I hear you" -- not necessarily "OK, I'll
change that right away."  It's not quite accurate that the default choice
is "no opinion" because it just may be the case that your opinion is not
to highlight it (rather than not caring one way or the other).  Probably
something incorporating the word "no" or something equivalent but sounding
like a default is what should be used?
