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 (...)

'Worst of the worst' has three spotlights... and it is in the main page highlights. How difficult can it be to spotlight ten things more (...)

| | | | | Agreed! (but not spotlighted!) I just went through announce.moc and highlit a few items, maybe we can push the unpleasentness off the front page. (18 years ago, 16-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) Agreed. As a new member with high expectations from this most "friendliest" of locales, I would like to let you all know that viewed from "the outside"(i.e. folks with little or no Lugnet experience) this type of garbage does not speak well of (...)

| | | | (...) No, I think you're wrong and users need a way to counter spotlighting in cases like this. Your post is another example of why a post needs an option to downgrade it. Some people who agree with you have gone and highlighted it. Now it looks (...) (18 years ago, 16-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

| | | | | (...) If people now highlight your post they are saying they agree with you rather than Richie. Thus his system would work. With a negative spotlight you allow people to treat things negatively without giving a valid alternative which is needlesly (...) (18 years ago, 16-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) I think I agree with some of this - my point, Tim, was that spotlighting shouldn't end up being used to vote on an issue because it just forces more dross into the spotlighted list. If someone thinks something is worth highlighting, but a lot (...) (18 years ago, 17-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

| | | | (...) No, you misunderstand. You spotlight stuff you want to see spotlighted. Spotlight a post of a MOC that you like, or an event you're interested in. You don't have to spotlight a "counter view". If you don't want my post appearing in the (...) (18 years ago, 16-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

| | | | (...) The Spotlight feature has been in place for what, five years or more now? And "petty aguments" and the like *consistantly* get in the front page spotlight. I think this is proof enough the current system doesn't work. You're saying "all people (...) (18 years ago, 17-Aug-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX) !
