Things the Report button is NOT for

Edit: It would appear so, the button is there and the dialog appears. I did not attempt to submit a report, the mods have enough to do.

In fairness I can think of a number of reasons why one might want to report one's own post, mostly involving drawing attention to technical issues and glitches if posting in Meta for some reason isn't possible.

Moderators can't help with technical issues. They don't have access to the site code or any ability to fix bugs or glitches. Computer programming and community peacekeeping are two entirely unrelated and not-overlapping skillsets. Also, don't report fires to your dentist, or toothache to your gardener.

I'm not sure I have ever reported anyone. Maybe once.
