Board Thread:Suggestions/@comment-32555140-20180919123336

So I'm not commonly on here but I'm a Content Mod so I guess I have the jurisdiction to suggest a new rule right?

Well here's the problem, I ignored this wiki for 3-4 days and got literally 20 messages highlighted. 20! 5 of them were highlighted in ONE. HOUR. And a lot of them were either nonsensical or just all around something that had no need to be highlighted at all.

So I'm suggesting that we create a highlighting rule, where you can only highlight Games, RPs, and extremely important news regarding the Wiki or Fandom itself.

Since you may not know what an 'extremely important message' is versus something you yourself think is important, here is an example:

Extremely Important: OMG, SOMEONE IS ATTACKING THE WIKI, MADE A FRAUD WIKI, AND IS THREATENING US WITH WAR!!!

Important: (Put on an admin or bureaucrat's message walls): Help! Someone is vandalizing pages!

Important to you: (Still put on an admin or bureaucrat's message walls): Help! Someone told me to go suck an egg!

So there are some examples but I also noticed some people arguing THROUGH highlighted messages, which pushes the grounds from annoying to unacceptable. If you have a problem with someone, put it on THEIR SPECIFIC MESSAGE WALL OR TELL THEM IN LIVE CHAT! I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH! Highlighting arguments only creates more drama like in the past few days.

Thats all that I have to suggest for this rule, so yeah, seeya!
