no. comments are no huge deal getting flagged once or twice normally... on the other hand if you get flagged a lot, in which case the scratch team reviews it before banning you. its not needed.
My point isn't that, it's that you already have to give reasons if you are reporting a forum post of flagging a project, so why not for comments?
projects never make as big discussions as forum topics do. plus, forum topics usually get many more views than projects do, which means more eyes seeing whatever 'innapropriate' thing was written.
Yes, but why I think it would be good is because it would help the Scratch Team when they're reading the reasons if the comment is really inappropriate or if it isn't too bad. Then they could look at the comment itself and decide for themselves.

if its innapropriate enough to get flagged, then it should be obvious why it was so no reason should be needed

Yes, but what if it was a personal thing? Maybe it might not seem inappropriate to some people, but what if Joe was insulted by it because of personal connections? Joe could flag it and if we had to tell a reason for why it was insulting to him personally. If you don't support, that's fine, but let's not create a flame war here

if it was an inside joke, odds are they're friends and they can talk about it elsewhere.

You can never know. If they aren't friends in real life, but for example, maybe Bob found out something about Joe on another website, but they didn't know each other in real life.

thats really far fetched... how often is that actually going to happen?

Have you seen Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter?

I think since comments are so short, it's pretty easy for a Scratch Team member to see what they did wrong. However, if you need to explain it more, it makes sense to explain it by contacting the Scratch Team.
When would you actually need to explain a comment's flagging? I'm curious.

I support sci's version.
That is, it's a good idea but the reason should be optional (so that if you really do need to explain the reason you may, but it's not mandatory).

Support! I think I suggested this a while ago...
