The Report Players button is there whenever you play on a server that
you are not having FUN on. The worst that would happen is simply the
server getting deregistered: players would no longer connect through
matchmaking, a service that's after all aimed at newbies who probably
would prefer the vanilla experience. I know I for one did, but people
have different tastes and the whole point of the reporting tool is
providing feedback about what people like and don't like to Valve.

In this perspective, I think that excessive modding that makes the
game not fun is a valid reason to report - just like abusive
administrators who freeze other people in place and noclip to grab the
gifts themselves.

On the other hand... well, if you don't like it, don't play on it. It
would make sense to propose the user to report a server right after
being forcibly disconnected (something Valve's working on IIRC), but
allowing users to report any server at any time is probably asking for
abuse of the tool.
