I disagree BelgarionRiva.
A few reasons report feature would be good:
1. Some don't know how to report here easily.
2. Some are not on the forum, even though playing for some time in the game.
3. A screenshot is actually a very narrow view of the conversation. With a report button, it could capture and store a lot more of the conversation.
So, with a report button, the workload is decreased to submit a report (nothing but a click), a broader view of the conversation can be seen by the admin (who would then be able take course of action more appropriately based on more fact). The reporter would also have to think twice about reporting (as the reporter may have been the instigator, and is also then less likely to report in first place). And fear of users easily reporting others will also likely decrease the amount of abuses in general.
I see very little positive about forcing users to report the current way and place action on so little information, should an easier and more complete method be able to be put into place.
