While you can theoretically remove the body of messages and only leave a signature, if even one other player writes something inbetween, reports become invalid. Even if not, you still know there was some message you either removed or the other person didn't see. Sending private messages also does nothing to incriminate a reported player, as that also breaks with other players writing messages, you still need a publicly visible (!) message with its full message content right before the other player replies (which also has to be included in the report), and with that it becomes obvious the other player did not reply to any of the private messages.

There we go. Can everyone shut up about the system being exploitable?
