A lot of people run cron bots to spam channels and join/chat/leave, which adds significantly to server overload (pointless join/leave sent individually to hundreds of users in 0000) and benefits the spammer (they get less spam because they are in 0000 less long). Also, scams sometimes join/post/leave.
Suggestion: after joining a channel, have a 10s cooldown before you can leave it (and, also, after leaving, a 10s cooldown before you can rejoin); that way there's no way to use a cron (or scam) to join/post/leave, which will either disincentives the spam or at least force the spammers to deal with the spam themselves the same way everyone else does. Either outcome is fine by me.

Yep! This will be addressed. Need cooldowns on a lot of things- definitely need that if exposing from the chatapi.
