I sure don't want to consider myself an abuser of this forum, and therefore don't see that as a proper solution.Nonetheless I do agree with @Joshua Dorkin that it can disrupt the flow of conversation... but I don't agree that most forums act this way; I've been a member of multiple forums, and most of them have options to delete posts... rather than contacting support or marking your own post as abusive.I digress...
