Is there a addon that allows you to hide messages that contains words you add to it?

Don't know, but high on my list for my next addon addition. I miss 'Badboy'.... pretty badly.

Most probably SpamThrottle: https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=5350

and you can maybe "abuse" WorldFilter: https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=22429 to do the same, but you need to know Lua regex.

The idea being for the second addon that as it's by default a whitelist (only what matches passes, while everything else is filtered) you would have to reverse the regex itself.
So the regex you use must say "Let everything pass (whitelist) that isn't spam" instead of "blacklist anything that is spam".

Edit: to add that the 2nd suggestion is more interesting as a thought experiment than anything of practical use as reversing regex gets very complex very fast.

TL;DR Try SpamThrottle and / or request features added to it if the author is willing.

Those two didn't work out for me so I decided to spin my own. Check out https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=32457, hopefully it'll help you out.
