I suppose if you added a red baseball cap that could represent **Righty McRightface** or with some gender tweaking **MAGGY McMAGAFace**. ---

Hey @engineer_comp_geek ! While we’re implementing improvements, any chance we could do this one … > [@Could we implement this option ...?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/could-we-implement-this-option/1005532): > > It’s a known ‘feature’ that when a post has one reply immediately following it, the reply doesn’t show the ‘replying to’ symbol (in the top right corner). This has often led to confusion about whether the reply actually is a reply to the previous post, or is a reply to the original post. This thread from the Discourse Meta site appears to show how this can be cured :- Maybe this should be in Site Feedback… No doubt i’ll find out soon ! ---

> [@pjd](#): > > He appears to be ignoring me … Not intentionally. Comcast decided that a few hundred people in my area didn’t really need internet for a couple of days. Originally they claimed it was due to a power outage, but the power company’s outage map didn’t have anything on it. Then Comcast’s outage map didn’t have any reason at all listed. Finally, they said they had a “network issue” in our area. After that they finally got it working again. You can’t really do mod things on a cell phone. Now that I am back online, I’ll take a look at it when I can. But I am rather busy at the moment. ---
