First of all the name could do with some better ideas I think it's a bit clunky.

But anyway, this was spawned by a Discord discussion where it was determined that we don't have an "inviting" way (for lack of a better word) for users with a private problem to come forth with said problem. Discuss. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Yoshi 23:54, March 8, 2021 (EST)

I really like this. A system like this would streamline the process for any person who has a concern or complaint about someone else.
