I was playing around with the reporting feature today, and I think it needs some
tweaking. Kind of hard to do for me, as logging out causes the system to require
me to log-in in order to report something, but I wanted to see how the general
public sees things. I did notice a lot of things have slipped by without being
reported, and took care of them. Anyway, I was able to determine that there doesn't
seem to be an easy way to report forum TOS violations. Perhaps a link for reporting
spam, flooding, swearing, etc. could be added to each message. Then, when a user
clicks on the link, they would click on a violation, add a comment if needed,
and the report message is sent to us as it is now, with an automatic link to
the message.
Please forgive me if that already exists, as I can't see it.

Yes. And there needs to be some direct correlation between the rules and the
violation choices offered. There are currently 9 rules but only 6 reasons for
reporting.
