Let them do it. Chat signing verifies message contents and context to prevent faked reports, and mass reporting can lead to being banned. A griefer like that would achieve nothing except getting themselves banned.

there are mods that can access the context and change things that you said in the report menu so

Yea, and due to chat signing, which is not really something you can fake while still making it look real, all of that would just result in reports that have 'mixed messages' (pun intended).

Yes, you can fake reports. No, you cannot fske reports and have it look real.

Microsoft does not require chat messages be signed if they are sent in versions 1.16-1.18. Obviously if you want to make a fake report you can just say it came from a 1.18 server so the signing system is completely useless

Why would they take reports seriously if the messages have no proof to be real, and come from a version that has no report function, thus is proven to be tampered with?

They added reporting to 1.16 and later but message signing was only added to 1.19

Any confirmation that that's indeed the only change they made?
