"Spotlight blog" in my.opera community

About the 'spotlight blog' option for opera community members: help other 'My Opera' members find good stuff...

(adapted from a hidden help page...)

=Opera Community Spotlights=

When you are logged in and surfing other Opera Community member's blogs, you can click on the 'Spotlight blog' link (has a star icon) if you think that the blog is worth sharing with other Operaites ('My Opera' members; 'tenors' and 'sopranos').

After you reach 15 spotlights (blogs you have spotlighted), you can still spotlight other blogs, but the oldest entry on the list of spotlighted blogs will be removed. (You can only have 15 spotlights shining on members simultaneously.)

It's not clear to me yet how the spotlights are actually used... maybe they're used to determine the member of the week?

Here's the official Help page, for what it's worth:

Yes, that is interesting. There _was_ a page there last November, honest.

Looks like they removed the help page, but since it was impossible to find anyway, guess it doesn't really matter.

Maybe they removed the feature ??

That's an example of why I posted this blog article in the first place; the 'Help' area isn't nearly as Helpful as it could be, because there's no option to just search http://my.opera.com/community/help/ (if you use the search on that page, you are searching everyone's blogs, which isn't that Helpfull...), and the "help page" doesn't really have any documentation in it (is just a "FAQ"...)

Is there some way one can find out

who has posted the most in opera?
who is the oldest member?
or such other information which lists the most valuable contributors in Opera community?

Rounak -

Those are very good questions. Unfortunately, I don't know the answers.

May I recommend that you post those questions to the forum at http://my.opera.com/community/forums/forum.dml?id=35 ?
