The fifth review here has been flagged, and I don't see why:

http://www.librarything.com/work/15024/reviews

Yes, it's short, but it conveys enough information:

"long since superseded, but still very readable" (4 stars)

I gave it a thumbs up thinking that might remove the flag, but apparently not.

Oh, geez, please don't give compensatory thumbs-up! They were always a horrible kludge, and now that they've been superceded by green flags they just have the effect of artificially inflating the thumbs-up count of awful (in quality, not in their opinion of the book) reviews.

Nothing you can do about this one now -- there's no way to take back a thumb -- but in the future the proper course of action in a case like this is a green flag.

Uh... Where's the green flag?

I thought this works on the plus/minus system (um, no, I don't remember why I thought this).

Right, I can't find any green flags either.

Let me guessss... one has to click flag, and then you get options? (I don't want to try it because I don't want to accidentally flag stuff if that too is "unremovable").

And, IF it so... not the best solution, imo.

I wanted to green flag a review the other day, and discovered that they seem to have disappeared.

As to this review, I can't get to it. The page just hangs up. (The entire site seems awfully slow to load today, for some reason.)

>5 LolaWalser:: I did try, and it wasn't there.

p.s.: >6 lilithcat: I'm having no trouble, well - no more than usual.

It's slow-ish for me too.

Hm, maybe they have disappeared.

It probably happened at the same time that the "you can't flag something that already has a red and a blue flag" bug popped up (which is very annoying -- one red flag doesn't hide a review, one blue flag basically does nothing, so a review in violation of the TOS gets off scot-free as long as it has a blue flag!)
