If it can be turned off from administration. These can cause massive amounts of spam on bigger forums.

Yup .. thats why I indicated to use the report post permissions, it should be no more abusive than that.

I see this being hard to handle the conflicts. What if there is someone with the name admins or moderators?

I firmly disagree, it's basically a dupe of the already existing function, and can also cause flaming - example: a guy tags a mod/admin, and the other guy rages at him for that.
Also, what Joshua said.

I think staff reference is a good feature.

Perhaps just have mentions for usernames, and add functionality to mention a group of people as an add-on?

Personally, I feel this would be a good idea.
For one, it would save on a lot of "Reported" posts, that people have often used as way to get posts moved/deleted.
I've seen it at SM.org, and on my own forums, before. That was one reason, I actually had ideas, never done, to not allow post reporting, since it seemed to have gotten spammed by move/delete requests.

I dont like it. I think too many taggings can be a spam too; and it can be disturbing as well. I would suggest the limit option on how much tagging can be made by a person too, if this is not implemented yet. Besides, board moderator is normally named and can be seen at the board info. So tagging that name should be just fine for needy members.
