I personally would be more convinced if you could find some threads that SHOULD be there, but aren't. Also include whether those threads have been spotlighted or not.

(...) Is that right? The top four items are now the Brickfest announcement, two on the survey. and one on a mecha contest. Between them they have 36 spotlights ('human recommendations').

He also posted it on a Friday (or so I seem to recall), and IIRC a bunch of MOC's had (...) (20 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: Compromised Functionality on Lugnet and Brickshelf?
