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 this feature could be and stop thinking about it!

For now, I just trust my fellow LUGNETters to highlight great MOCs and to leave
it at that.

(...) 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)
