@Rachin, personally I see no issue with us having that power. But it seems Dantman is against it wholeheartedly. I don't think its so much an issue because we can also un-highlight threads real quick, so if one of us did something silly we could fix it and take the rights away.

But in my personal opinion, why does everyone care so much if the forum mods have that power? Have any of us demonstrated a tendency to violate forum policy? I accept that it's not my call. But why does it matter so much. We can highlight threads now. If one of us did it wrongly, correct the mistake. If we do it wrongly too many times, take our mod status away. I don't think it's an issue.

@Rachin, I was just talking in their terms. They're dead set against us using the power, so me, not really caring about the ability much (it just added something for me to do if I saw it should be done), was going along with it. But I don't know what the fuss is about.
