Not sure what the course of action is here, what should we do if a non discobot owned post is flagged:

1. We raise an error saying you are not allowed to flag here
2. We omit the flag option unconditionally from non-discobot posts in discobot topics
3. We keep stuff as it is now (so you can flag your own posts or posts by other people in your dicobot topic)

Given the low frequency of this problem I am not sure what we should do here.

My preference I guess it either (2) or (3). But I worry that if we start mucking with this we introduce even more complexity and special cases. I don’t like the idea of (1)
