If the report button is hit it is directed to the super mods who thencontact us to resolve the issue...not aware of being able to retract ....

I'm surprised I've not "reported" many times. Having large fingers I press about everything else by mistake!

Talking of features when are we going to get a "Don't Like" feature. Be a bit quick and we'd beat FB to it! It would have been glowing red hot on the first few pages on this thread.

There should be a virtual key which is only visible when you press the report button, and just like a fire key all you have to do is break the glass on your device to use it...

How badly do you want to report that post then??!!

You've got that all wrong and back to front. What the Mods and Supermods need is a secret 'Invisibility button.' This will enable us to actuate it on a troublesome poster. They would be completely oblivious that whatever they post can't be seen by anyone and they are in essence just talking to 'the blue nowhere.'

I proposed this to dear old BrixtonR once.
 
Beth, we have eaten like kings, or pigs - helped by being with our Chicago native mates. So had original Chicago deep dish pizza from Pizzeria Uno (I only eat this in Chicago, it's more of a pie than a pizza), truly outstanding steak at the Chicago Chop house and proper Italian at Riccardo's Trattoria. Topped up with proper US breakfasts, the odd burger or muffin, and currently breakfasting on artisan doughnuts from Glazed 'n Infused. Flying home later today.

This is a great city, I would move here in a heart beat.

'sb' ................. I'm concerned that if you moved there on a permanent basis, with all those meals, there may not be a heart beat for much longer!
I must confess that I do envy all those dishes......... authentic pizza, a US big breakfast, glazed doughnuts...... ahhhhh, the arteries are convulsing as we speak.:emoticon-0100-smile
Good to hear you enjoyed your stay.
Is Chicago as windy as they make out?

Just back to drizzly Leamington Spa...you are absolutely right, it would be fatal in the long term, especially as I am of the generation who feel obliged to 'clean the plate' (parents who lived through both poverty and rationing) rather than take half the meal home in a doggy bag like they do with the ludicrous portions in the States.

Dull fact...apart from my personal not inconsiderable contribution, the Windy City was nicknamed not for the breeze (which is pretty strong off Lake Michigan) but for 19th century local politicians who apparently liked the sound of their own voices.

The US has lots of faults (many of them commented on regularly on here) but I confess I am smitten with it. However, this was my 7th round trip this year and I am quite happy not to be going back until the New Year, just a couple of more manageable European jaunts to go, 2 for work, 1 for pleasure.

Mods

have been reading through this thread & from your explanations of the report button ..... could you just confirm for me (on the mod board) whether or not any of you can see Reports on the dark blue line at the top of the page .... the one that shows your username

We seem to have the situation where some mods can see it & some can't

Thanks
 
On way to match so on my phone....which is problematic...will get back to you later Minxy....when I have fielded the Ramsey out now fallout from today. :)
