...Nearly everything you could report a post for goes in the "other" category. The rest of the things happen once in a millennium. There's no point in even having them over anything else. Can you just add more useful dropdown options?

We could probably need the following...

> Flaming
>Trolling
> Offensive

So why do we have a moderator section? :wee:

Section for the dick suckers moderators to make them feel special talk about important issues on the forums. It's just a forum that is named "moderator section"

With those options, the first resort people will do is to Report Posts right when they think something even slightly offensive appears.

If something is really bad, just PM a Mod.

Just think.

Hypothetical Situation
Person 1: I just drew some picture! <insert picture here>
Person 2: That drawing could use some improvement.
Person 1: OMGOMGOMG U JUST FLAMD MEH. I IS REPORT!!
<person 1 reports person 2 for "flaming">

With millions of reports not unlike the Hypothetical Situation above flooding moderator inboxes, I'm pretty sure someone will get pissed off.

Gais, gais.

There's an other.

That's for when it doesn't fit in the other options.

...

And we already get flooded with retarded reports.

Actually, the exact thing what Nobody used as a hypothetical situation actually happened once...

Three times.
