We used to call it "best of" then went to "favorites." It obviously won't be favorites anymore - didn't think of this use case.

as a general rule, avoid the word favorites altogether in any software, unless you are certain it will only be used in the US. We spell it favourites, and "favvOrrittez" as you seem to spell it, really grates. Esp in IE, whereas Net/moz always called them bookmarks. Fayvritz.

Perhaps just a star? You can call them "starred" posts. Seems somewhat more neutral.
