Report verification render not redirect

Fix an issue with the report verification, causing it to lose the text of a report if the user fails to fill in a category.

By using a `render` instead of a `redirect_to`, the rails standard verification behaviour works better. It means we also get a nice red "can't be blank" message highlighting the specific missing field.
