Subject: [BD-ADM] Report Abuse

Since we admins now have the "edit message" button, what is the purpose
of the "report abuse" button? From the user side, they could use this
button, for instance, if they wish to correct a message by requesting a
delete of the first message and then submit a new message with the
correct date, etc.. I think a more appropriate name for this button on
the user side would be "request delete". There is a space for the
reason for the request so the admin. can make a judgment about the
request if it is someone else's post. Also, is there something that
alerts the administrator when a "report abuse" - hopefully changed to
"request delete" button is activated by a user?
