Seriously. If you ever are enraged and report someone, please don't post/quote the person going "reported". This is not nice and only serves to aggravate the other person. You're also giving us mods more work by having to delete your dumb post to let YOU know that what you're doing can be considered Abuse and to tell you to knock it off.

There is nothing that telling someone they've been reported does other than give you a little endorphin rush of superiority. At best, the other person will just laugh it off. Somewhere between the other end of the spectrum and in the middle of it, is the other person overreacting and either feeling really terrible for the rest of the day, or them lashing out back at you and a flame war between them and you starting up (and thus more work for mods to clean up).

Report, ignore list if necessary, then move on.
