Question: Any reason why I can't see 'Report a post' - want to report user 'Lanny' to Apple

I only see 'Link to this post' at the bottom right drop down.


I couldn't report his posts to Apple... I believe his behavior is inappropriate.


If an Apple Community Supervisor could contact me please.

MacBook, macOS 10.15

Here's my post with his 2 comments.


He didn't bother to offer a solution to my query... instead says "Make an effort to use the correct case letters." and "Looks like you don't know the difference between a g and G either.".


This is impolite and goes against the spirit of this community. If a user like Lanny can be nasty and condescending ...I should at least be able to block him.


There are plenty unfortunate people like him around ...but we should be able to filter away the dirt.

This is why you have to be level 2 to report posts. I see nothing wrong with the information provided you regarding the use of correct terminology. We all forget and use incorrect symbols at times so it is good to be reminded. It is especially important when talking about size, space, speed, bandwidth etc. a "b" is a lot different than a "B" and could significantly change a response or cause confusion to the poster.


Just for clarification a "b" refers to a "bit" and a "B" refers to a "byte". Big difference and could change the understanding of a post.


FWIW, I found the response you are referring to very helpful.
