    I disagree.

    I already voiced my concerns on this thread.

    Basically it could be used in a roundabout way to publish the contents of a pm without breaching the site-wide rule about not doing so without the senders permission.

    Only Smods and Admins will see reported PM's now. CuLT fixed it, I'm sure he or an SMod can confirm.

    The feature has now been altered so that reported PMs are only visible to Smods and admins.

    So in that respect, it's no different now to simply forwarding the PM to an Smod/Admin.
