Yeah, I know. Disregarding the icon for even one thread seems kinda dodgy though. However, as I said, I'll do it if that's what people want.

---

it looks slightly better though... at least IMHO...

Ok, the 75-post thread is a bad example, but it is true that in many threads often 1 or two posts are the important ones (sometimes on another page, or after "bad/wrong/incomplete" posts). And sometimes those posts are a resume what has been said in the thread with added things or something.

Maybe... maybe. I was hoping to keep it simple and just do it by thread. What if there are multiple useful posts within a thread? Like if one member answers a question, then another member provides some additional information?

---

Yep, that's why I'm in favor for a link which links to the first "important" post (or first post were you could start reading to get the context). That's the reason why I suggested that when you click on the lightbulb you will be taken to a certain post within that thread (or something). If the whole thread is important then, of course, it would be the toppost.

The same is true for what I've already coded and am currently testing: a page that simply lists all the important threads. They'll show up on the list no matter what forum they're in, and even be organized by forum.
