The reason people post a reply stating "reported" so that other members do not report the same post again. When someone DO NOT post "reported", everyone thinks it hasn't been reported and reports the post(s). Then, I end up getting 1600 reported posts on the same post. It's very time consuming on our part since we check EVERY reported post(s). That's why you see the "reported" post. So, next time you see a post reported, there's no need to report it again.
