Good point, Jeff - actually something like that appears ideal: User opinions are
very important when it comes to the spotlight feature, so we probably want
exactly this option: To be able to move a topic out of the spotlight upon
request, or probably even by active voting from the community.
As for rejecting new posts to threads, or moving threads someplace else, that'd
be similar to being able to lock threads - a feature very nice to have but very
difficult to set up. I'll have a chat with René and will see what is possible.
Keeping the spotlight focused on LEGO- rather than personal topics will quite
possibly be our first pick, though.
Regards,
Jerry
