I always try to avoid reporting people who are abusive at the tables, as:
Players doing this are generally poor / losing players
Someone ranting in chat is easier to identify as being on tilt
I would rather the person vent in chat and continue to lose money, if they are chat banned they may be more likely to quit the session or play on another site
It's getting harder to make money these days so although these people are annoying don't forget they are generally paying for the privilege.
(Obviously if it is a micro stakes game/community game and/or you play purely for fun and this is spoiling said fun then report away)
If the recipient of the abuse is already chat banned then it's perfectly acceptable to abuse that person. No punishment shall be given to the abuser of the already banned individual
