Hello!

After a discussion on a discord, someone pointed out that it might be worth assigning a random timestamp in the past to confuse the context of messages more, in case Mojang uses the timestamp.

The Minecraft server checks if timestamps are out of order. If you send a timestamp before the previous message, the server kicks you. It might make sense to subtract an amount of time from the real timestamp, or keep track of the previous timestamp and add a random amount to it.

From my understanding this is also just a proof of concept of a way to confuse the reporting system.
