I flagged the upload for Gregory Orr. I received a blistering comment from the user that posted the image. That user has now apparently turned off comments so it is impossible to direct him to the LT page on copyright etc. OK, but I also can't leave a follow-up comment with the flagged picture.

Do you folk see this as an issue?

He apparently hasn't read the uploading guidelines, so If I were you, I think I'd ignore it. You aren't obligated to leave any follow-up.

Slow down there, son. You received a blistering message from a user who had nothing to do with the image. I don't know why you bothered Gregory; I don't know him and don't even share any books with him. I'm the author, and the picture was taken at a conference with my camera.

He received the message from the person who uploaded the image.

It looks like perhaps he's just blocked you. I've posted a note on his profile page.

Yes, rude remarks and blocking of the flagger seem to be a not uncommon response from people who don't bother to read the copyright guidelines.

Thanks all. I just need thicker skin.
