@Heather225 ... and
- If you are on Linux, just press the 'Print' key on your keyboard, which should in most cases open the screenshot program.
@Heather225 thank you! Will save this post ^^
It is in rows with only two to three letters in rows can it be reloaded?? Thank you
@Heather225 thank you for the information and links.
I’m viewing this information on a handheld device and it’s impossible to read it. All the words are in columns of several letters. Is it possible for the original message to be differently formatted for the many of us who are using handheld devices?
So sorry about the format. I have pasted this post into a doc I hope you can view.
@Heather225
Thankyou for the update ❤️

Thank you for this update!
@Heather225 may I suggest something I usually do which I feel is a lot more secure to share screenshots during reports?
Pasting screenshots on a google doc and putting the doc's link in the reporting form may do the trick😮
@LavenderHere That is not more secure. Email isn't much better, either, though, if the user uses googlemail.
What would be more secure would be a form on the 7cups website. Which would be the most common way of doing this kind of thing and which would exclude third-party sites completely.
I'm really confused as to why 7cups does not have such a form, like almost all websites I know of.
Thanks so much for attaching this important information as a document so it’s readable!
Thank you very much. This information is much appreciated. I have some questions. Is there any way to make it a policy that people can't report other people without a screenshot? Also does the administration deactivate people off of just complaints with no proof? Why does it feel like people get deactivated and they have to prove their innocent? This really isn't the place for guilty until proven innocent. Why don't they look at people's credentials before they deactivate them? Does the administration understand that if you take any kind of leadership role here people will report you for enforcing the rules or because they feel like they were treated unfairly? We really do need screen shots with all reports so that you guys can exactly know what was going on. I have a feeling this would stop people from false reporting and save some time for the admins to work on other things. I was just deactivated the other night and I follow the rules here. I'm a regular host and community leader. I was extremely heartbroken and confused. It really shook my faith and dedication to 7 cups. I'm on a self care break from hosting but I'm still trying to help the other hosts so the place I've come to love runs smoothly. I am second guessing going back to hosting. I love it but people don't seem to understand we have issues too. Being deactivated for stepping up doesn't help. I'm only trying to help other people in need.
@Cancun It would be even better if there were a 'flag this conversation' button somewhere, as the data exists on 7cups. It's probably not even encrypted anyway, so why not use it for reporting? Then report and offending message would be one thing.
