  Re: Un-spotlight? (was: suspended Bricklink shops)
 
(...) No, still bad. There will be the odd member that still uses his quota maliciously. And, as I explaned here: (URL) only took just such a similar limited amount of down-votes to disrupt the Lugnet Set Database ranking order severly. With (...)

  Re: Un-spotlight?
 
(...) IMHO that is exacly what has happenend here. Remember that it is a voting process, please don't try to adjust to archieve a result that's more in the line of your personal preferences. With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen. (22 years ago, 27-Aug-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Un-spotlight? (was: suspended Bricklink shops)
 
(...) That's a very good idea. As others have pointed out, it could cause trouble in other ways though. However, I think that if every member was given 5 Un-Spotlights to use per year, they would only use them when they thought it really mattered. (...)

  Re: Un-spotlight?
 
(...) Um. Why? The goal is really to prevent people from having enough votes to wily-nily vote down all posts by people they don't like, or something. Hence, if you've only got (say) 3 votes per day, it'll take you a *long* time to downvote someone (...) (22 years ago, 26-Aug-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Un-spotlight?
 
(...) OK, I also don't like my idea, but I think the spotlighting can be improved. I for one only spotlight if it's not already in the top stories list, maybe some others are the same. And since it seems to only take 3 or 4 spotlights to get there (...) (22 years ago, 26-Aug-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: Un-spotlight? (was: suspended Bricklink shops)
 
(...) I strongly object to this idea. Unfortunately it will be too tempting for certain people to systematicly denote other posts in an effort to get their own posting higher up the hierarchy. That such abject behavour exists within our community, (...) (22 years ago, 26-Aug-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
