{{< changed-in v="1.8" >}} The server MUST verify that the user
reporting the event is currently joined to the room the event is
in before accepting a report.

should, therefore, be cautious not to shut down rooms that might otherwise

{{< changed-in v="1.8" >}} When processing event reports, servers MUST
verify that the reporting user is currently joined to the room the event
is in before accepting a report.
{{< added-in v="1.12" >}} Contrarily, servers MUST NOT restrict room reports
based on whether or not the reporting user is joined to the room. This is
because users can be exposed to harmful content without being joined to a
room. For instance, through room directories or invites.
