I don't follow. You can't be abusive and have mental issues, or are you saying if someone is abusive they cannot then be described as having mental issues?
To the extent I need to explain myself, the abusive messages aren't the only reason why I believe this person has issues.

Thank you for having a sense of humor about that. Years ago in a totally different forum I was getting some pretty nasty PMs and it can be really creepy, not so funny.

I understand if you do not wish to reveal his username on the forums but is he an active forum member? Does he have a fair amount of rep (or a negative one)? I think whether he's an active forum member or some asshole who specifically signed up to harass people is an important factor.
And frankly I'm not sure I would involve the blues, at least not yet. Frankly I would just reveal his name here so users can determine whether he's a known troll who has harassed many people already and is an asshole on the forums or whether this is a single occurrence or something. It's not like you'd reveal his true identity and I think there's no unwritten law or anything that states that one shouldn't reveal user names of people who harass others via PM. After all, that's been done already with scammers numerous times and if anything it helped others.

I think just reminding him of how you're trained in gorilla warfare should do the trick

Contact us - Other. I don't think anyone looks at "block and report" reports, except maybe in cases of spam. I know from firsthand experience that Contact - Other is watched by GOG staffers who resolve user complaints and in severe cases forward them to high-ups (TET) for srs admin action.
Ooh, I'm all for public lynchings of homophobic assholes! The forum has been notably lacking in drama for quite some time.

It doesn't bother me hugely but I am more concerned about this user (who appears to have some mental issues) abusing other users, possibly younger people with thinner skin who might not be able to handle it.
What do you think, should I report him? I'm not even sure how.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
