Unflag a Post Gone


My account used to have the ability to unflag posts up until recently. When reading an individual's comment that was flagged, I looked for the unflag button and it wasn't there.

My account is a few years old and I believe has sufficient points.

Another post from someone with the same issue that was found in the search:

I've tried doing a web search and there wasn't much on this issue. Hope someone else can give a clear answer as I think it would be helpful for others as well.

Mentioning the admin dang by keyword might help? Thanks if you see this.

because someone else flagged it, not (just) you

The "vouch" button only appears in "[dead]" comments. Take a look at the unoficial FAQ by minimaxir https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented?tab=re...

@dang does nothing, but you can write to hn@ycombinator.com
