What an awesome way to address the current shortcomings of the strategy forum. This approach is truly beautiful and I'm impressed, partly because I imagined the forum as already having been abandoned even by the staff.
This might just make it useful again.

Great news, heard about it on State of the Game and couldn't wait for it after then. Glad to see it implemented.

like the idea a lot, but the chosen color for highlighting really bothers me from a design standpoint. A more organic change is far less intrusive but still adheres to the purpose of these highlights.

Cool idea bit the initial list seems questionable to me. I have never seen some of these users post in the strategy forum and I'd like to think I've read most of the posts on the sc2 strategy forum lol

I find it most amusing that Idra is in the list. Will he be highlighted in the automated ban list too? :p

Nice work, but the problem still remains of having to browse through a massive 20 page+ thread to find that one insightful and good post, just now its easier to spot because of the color rather than just looking at the names.

I'd really like a button so i can jump directly to a highlighted reply for given thread rather than having to browse through the entire thread.

Highlighted Users is a good first step. There needs to be a way to identify threads with Highlighted Users, and a way to jump to the Highlighted Users posts.

This is an excellent idea. I have a great recommendation I will post as well.. I am so glad TL is finally doing something about this. I think it will be great for players that are really trying to filter info as well.

Well, basically you're catering to what? Is Idra going to explain to a bronze league player that Ultras/Broodlords are bad against protoss in late game because at a pro level, he seems to think this is true? That's just one example of how elevating someone's opinion is doing a disservice to others. Especially true considering 99% of the people posting/reading the strategy forum probably gain no real practical knowledge by following these pro gamers' advice.

I have no problem with you tagging people - but why not do it in a more constructive way? Why not link team liquid profiles to the sc2ranks database and show their ladder ranking? And let users search for posts based on this? That way if somebody wants to read master league strategy, they can filter this way. I am certain there are plenty of occasional posters that are highly ranked competitive players - that would not be included on this elitist list and have their opinions discredited by the fact that they aren't on "the list"

Being automatically highlighted every time you say something does bring in some level of expectation/pressure.

I hope this doesn't scare the highlighted users off posting. Especially when sharing their personal, subjective, controversial, experimental, or innovative thoughts.


I would assume if someone doesn't want to be highlighted they won't be. If they accept they are most likely fine with whatever it brings. And it isn't really that different from before, only slightly more people will notice when someone like Idra make a post.

The Strategy forums still scare me. Do threads with highlighted posts get a little highlight in the forum index as well?

My question is, what distinguishes a quality poster with a blue star (like infinity21), from one of these highlighted members? I look at blue starred posters the same way I would now look at these highlighted ones. Should these members get highlights as well?
