It might be better to have it slightly more obvious a color change, if possible. This project was literally delayed over a month solely because of colour selection. I'm dead serious. | ||

Time to be more active in strategy forum~! On February 18 2011 01:39 Chill wrote: This project was literally delayed over a month solely because of colour selection. I'm dead serious. Haha wow... and here I had assumed 3 months ago that that would be the color to win, simply because it shows up well even on dying monitors and is supercool in general. | ||

Doesn't mean I can't complain about it though  Then again, not my house, so I'll just shut up and deal with it. Good work though, serves its intended purpose. | ||

And for those saying this may lead to people ignoring/bm'ing non-highlighted users, that's obviously up to the individual poster, who can ignore people trying to help them at their own risk. For bm'ers that's what the mods are for  Keep up the good work! | ||

This is something we will consider once the list has grown more. You mean like the low number of Blizzard community managers and the low number of posts they put on the forums? With the "jump to blue post" button is one of the best features on there? A low number arguably makes the feature even more important so that you can easily sift through all of the posts for it. Edit: Also, overall, good first selection of players! I completely agree with your selection criteria including some activity on the forum in the first place since those people are likely the first ones who will go back to posting on there a lot. Good job, TL! Edit 2: I should note that I'm fine without a jump button; it's just that the logic behind the decision seems flawed. I've been browsing the Strategy forum a bit and am actually quite happy with how the highlighting integrates in. | ||

Good job, TL! The point is that these posters are not the only good advice in the strategy forum, but rather advice that can be trusted upon to be reliable. The vast majority of users have good things to say too. | ||

People want their posts read, they just do. People who have little clue still post advice and being a newb it's pretty hard to discern what is correct advice and what isn't. Thanks a lot TL. | ||

This system is useful for me when I want to check out some games from sc2casts because every series can be voted by viewers. | ||

To me they both acknowledge a certain recognition, just one is more apparent than the other (and one's strictly for the Strat forum). | ||

To me they both acknowledge a certain recognition, just one is more apparent than the other (and one's strictly for the Strat forum). Quality Posters have gone above and beyond in doing something that has helped TL. No one gotten to be a Quality Poster by just posting a lot - they have always gone beyond simply posting. They have stars everywhere in the forum. Highlighted Users are good at the game and post accurate advice. They are only highlighted in the strategy forum. Seems completely different, I'm not sure where the hangup is on the distinction. | ||

P.S. I'm sorry if it has already been asked but I do not have time to review the whole thread right now. | ||
