Vote to Delete option...
I used to frequent www.twinturbo.net a Nissan 300ZX forum and they had a Vote to Delete button that would allow registered forum readers to choose to delete a post on their own after a certain number of members voted to do so. This was a nice feature considering the jerks that sometimes wander into the forums with worthless and offensive posts and allowed the forum community to police their own forum. As a web developer, I know this is a big system design change. but it may be worthwhile and save your moderators some trouble.

I agree with the original poster. Much easier to click a button than to compose an e-mail.
As evidenced by many of the posts on the feedback forum, it looks to be like not a lot of people have used abuse@audiworld.com. Heck, I've been here for lots of years and I'm not sure I've ever sent a message to that address...but I'm sure I would have voted on a lot of posts to get them deleted.
Maybe an intermediate option would be to have a link at the bottom of each post saying "report this post to a moderator" not as nice as the original poster's suggestion, but better than nothing.
