A serious question to SE

Right Click + Report is all we need

Bull. Like I said, chat will still be flooded with the massive walls of text regardless of having this option or not. How about we get to the ROOT of the problem instead of just cutting off the branches every time they grow new ones? There is no reason there shouldn't be a system in place that prevents the same message from being sent dozens of times in a 30-60 second length of time. It can just pick up on the same words being repeated that way the spammers can't get around it by adding something at the beginning or end. Hell, sending a buncha messages in a short timeframe shouldn't be allowed. Not saying add a cooldown to EVERY message, but like if someone says like 5 or 10 things in a 10 second length of time THEN they get a cooldown. Normal people will never run into issues with that unless they're truly spamming because who says 5 to 10 unique things in the same chat within a 5-10 second period of time?
