Hiding the button doesn't explain to the user why its not there anymore. Its not going to be obvious to everyone. Not everyone is going to assume "Oh it must have been reported already". Appending a message as an extra option allows admins the choice to give the end user a small notice that this post has already been reported.
A better alternative would be to replace the report button with a non functioning button labeled "Reported", but this is not a good option due to mybb using images for buttons, would work better if the buttons were css.
