After 5 markings of inappropriate, it will get sent in as inappropriate for admins to check out. In this way it can't be abusable. "Hey, let's go mark this guy's base so it gets removed "

According to the screenies and videos of C2 that I've seen, bases will look so different there that custom skins would not be nearly as good an idea as they would be with the current boring bases.

I love the idea of custom ship skins, but how many people can really make a nice skin for a 3D ship?

i really don't see a need for some report system, we have one already, if people have a complaint they can send a ticket.. pretty much the same thing your asking for.

Any kind of skinning would need to be procedurally implemented else before long the client will grow to several gigs in size with all the custom textures people would submit.

Also I don't really support this kind of thing because some people just have bad taste or lack the ability to produce something refined. And others would create bad looking stuff on purpose for shits and giggles. I can already imagine seeing neon pink dreads and lime green zebras...

Also the manpower of overhauling of going though submissions and overhauling those that are good to end up ingame would be too great and not really worth the effort.
