Don't make it obvious what parts of notes I need to pay attention to
This may just be a problem only I have with alot of the community rooms here, but please don't do stuff like highlight sections of text for the sole purpose of telling the player, "this is a clue, pay attention". Personally it feels like babying the player. It's ok if the underlines and highlights serve a purpose outside of the direct room, like to emphasise parts of the story of the room or the character that is writing the note (i.e writing that's more forceful, like a character was angry when writing a line)

That makes sense. I also like it when you can figure it out yourself. That's one thing I do find a bit of an issue with the game itself, as the keys, clues, etc. are mentioned in the title of every item. It helps when you're lost but it makes it boring when you're told what is and isn't a key or clue. There's pros and cons to everything I guess.

The map maker has the choice to disable them. More often then not the feedback and playtesting tell the players to include the things.

Can't please everyone.

I wish they made a "easy" or "hard" option that enables or disables the hints.
