[Suggestion] Copy-topic, backup certain forum, etc.

[FunFirst]

I know this is old but i have to give my feedback on this and noticed a few posts above. Anyway, i also want this feature on IPB. Back on Burning Board, i require my mods to copy the whole topic before they edit something in it like a post that contains inappropriate links or words. I need them to copy these topics for backup before the posts are edited in case a user gets smart and starts to claim that he didn't post such a thing, then we'd have something to show as proof.

Easy solution. Report the post first, then edit the post. The report feature will make a copy of the members post, sending it to the report center. The members can't see the posts, but it shouldn't be to hard to copy the contents and PM them to the member, saying, "This was your post before it was edited so STFU."
