Every one that says there is a need for his steam id then why on the report abuse template there is no part mentioning proof of steam id? He isn't reporting a user he is reporting a staff member!
What Miia said, basically. Proof isn't needed for staff because you can easily see that it is indees that staff member from other things in the game (e.g. the moderator tag next to their name in chat). As this person has not yet received his rank we cannot be sure it is actually him.
Even if they are staff, another staff member of the same rank can easily change their name to the same as that of the staff member being reported. I could easily set my name to Raeker on my alt, give it admin, set the avatar as yours and then start banning everyone from there and without proof of SteamID, a report could be accepted against you for no reason.
SteamID proof is important, and I'm still unsure of why it isn't on the staff report abuse template.
