So usually what I do when I report something is the beginning explaining why it’s inappropriate, then I’m not sure what to write so I just type nonsensical garbage, do I need to be professional when reporting stuff?

This is all you need. You don't need to be “professional,” but at least make it clear why you are reporting the content. Nonsensical garbage seems like it won't make much sense to the moderators.

I’ll try not spitting nonsense next time then

No, but it's probably best to keep it short, so don't go off writing a Shakespearean novel about the tragedy of a duplicate post

Please don't use nonsensical garbage, because that can come across as abuse of the flagging system, which means you could end up being notified for behavior and/or your ticket closed. This especially true for projects where the content might not be so obvious.

We just need something that's straight to the point. Something like:

"mean comment"

reads more easily than:

"this person wrote something that is mean and it made me and my friends upset so that's why I'm reporting this comment because it breaks the treat everyone with respect community guideline."

Still, I think you need at least some explanation and context when reporting, not overly verbose but not that vague.

says the person with “Last edited by kaj (Tomorrow 0:00:00)” in their post The person did admit to it being a fake shortly after they released it, so no harm done, and therefore little legal basis for a fraud claim…
