Add highlighting to the forums

Title says above.

Why highlighting should be added?
-For long posts, this is useful to highlight the most important information in your post.
-Stands out more than bolded text and underlined text.
-Colored text is hard to read. This colors the text around it while still maintaining the same text color as the rest of the text.

By itself, colored text is good for headers but it's not good to use it too much in your paragraphs.

I don't have a problem with it being added but I probably wouldn't use it a lot because (As others are saying) colored text is just fine. Infact in some cases I think its better.

If you don't use too light colours then it's fine in my opinion.

As discussed in discord, it's rather easier if you just bold or italic or underline important points. Highlighting was removed from Xenforo in 1.4, it's rare to find plugins for it at the moment - I don't see it as a necessary addon for the forums.

Good idea! It would make it easier to read threads with a lot of words as example @Dotsially his thread. Some good ideas in his thread, but it makes it harder to read if nothing is highlighted.
