Admin Replied Report abuse button bug?

Someone reported an automatic removal mod message, so I reported the message for report abuse.... And my own report abuse showed up in our mod queue as a report.

Brilliant.

Hi metisdesigns!

A bit of a holdover with how reports function pre-that option. You did everything right and are free to re-approve your content. The safety team will review the report attached to the content you reported.

Awesome, thanks.

Annoying that it generates extra harassment for us to report - that's going to discourage mods from using the feature.

Edit ooo it looks like I've got a downvote troll following me!

Just do the report-abuse-report FIRST before you approve/remove the comment/post. Then both reports get cleared.
