(...) <snip> (...) It's a good idea on paper. The issue will arise when Group A has more people than Group B--Group A can always make sure nothing from Group B ever gets highlighted just by everyone in Group A 'lowlighting' the post. I mean if we (...) (21 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) Exactly how I'm reading it as well, Suz. There are many times I've seen something spotlighted and thought to myself, 'Why in the world would anyone spotlight this? I wish I could cancel out their vote.' Then I realize just how open to abusive (...) (21 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) I think what he means is to 'lowlight' a post. Like, if you not only think it shouldn't be hightlighted by yourself, it shouldn't be highlighted by some others either. -Suz (21 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) This is possible. At least to me it is. The drop down highlight menu offers three options: "highlight" "spotlight" and "---" - if you want to un-highlight, change your selection from "highlight" to "---" and hit submit. Works for me. -Lenny (21 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) I think this has been suggested before. Trouble is, it's open to abuse. If you don't like someone, you can go and "unhighlight" all their posts, effectively censoring them (a bit). ROSCO (21 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

Is there a way to prevent your own post from being highlighted? I don't like the fact that so much of what went on in admin.general was highlighted. I don't think it was good for the bulk of the people on LUGNET. I also don't think it contributed to (...) (21 years ago, 26-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)
