While I fail to see a point for this retirement of features, I too will state that the VSBW community depends on communication with large groups of people to function happily.

Highlights currently are used to give notifications about large revision projects, new revisions for specific verses, big community changes, and even staff retirements. Restricting this function would make it so practically nobody could remain informed at all times unless they constantly checked the singular notification thread you are giving us.

This retirement will purely lead to restriction, albeit more severe in communities like ours where the forums and a general coming together are our lifeblood. Wikis that are only sources of information likely do not need too many announcements- that's fine. However, we are a community. For all the positives and negatives of that word, we need highlights as they are now.

Thanks for reading if you ever really do. Cheers, from a poor and simple Discussion Moderator of the VS Battles Wiki.
