Block Spamming.

I have reported 2 topics in Bugs and Glitches forum because the OP blockspammed, making it hard to understand the bug. (Yes the OP is the same guy who made the “What If I Am Disrespectful” thread here.) I just wanted to make sure they were reasonable and I wouldn't get alerted for reporting blockspammed threads.

Yes, the OP, or a responder spams blocks to say stuff- repeatedly.

That's actually not blockspam, since it's on topic. Some people just use Scratch blocks as a type of font, which is okay, but not recommended as it takes longer to load the page.

no I didnt get warned about blockspam, just some dude keeps blockspamming in his topics- yea its a way of text- but it does get annoying- especially when they use it to type whole sentences- making it hard to interpret what they are saying.

Block Spamming.

Blockspam:
say [Hello] for (2) secs
say [How are you?]

This is an example of blockspam.
But this is okay:
when [space v] key pressed
show
when [a v] key pressed
hide

This is okay. The Scratch Blocks were made for showing people how to code stuff (you know)
But blockspam is when someone uses the Scratch Blocks to talk and stuff (see first example)

I love: Star Wars, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Alice in Wonderland/Alice Through the Looking Glass, cats, Boba Fett, and A Seires of Unfortunate Events!!!
I hate: bullying, false reporting, hate, Obi-Wan and Han Solo, and huskies
I'm: female, weird, and VERY crazy (and Boba Fett's biggest fan)

This is in fact blockspam

But this:

is not blockspam. However, I don't think people should really do this. It's not against the rules but it's extremely annoying.

The threads the guy made was just a longgg list of scratch blocks making it hard to understand what the bug was in detail

That is reportable, though. If it's really just a font, that's like you saying:

Haha I Get To Use Scratch Blocks Because They're Not Reportable Lol

This is spam, off-topic, and doesn't even pertain to the question. The blockspam version is spammy, off-topic, and not pertaining to the question too, but with a new bonus: it takes longer to load. Now, that in and of itself is fine…. but it has no point if it is just spam.
