Channel mode +G

Post by Travis »

Hello,
I was wondering if it's possible to have channel mode +G set, and make it so that a specific nickname can still see the swearwords. I need this because I need to configure a bot to kick people who swear, but I also don't want young eyes seeing the actual word. I want it to appear <censored> to everyone else, besides my bot. I know this may not be possible, but I decided to check.

Thank you!

No, that's not possible.

(But your bot could always kick on "<censored>" :wink: )

I'm not C/C++ savvy (yet) but if you are you might be able to modify it to do that & recompile OR pay the Unreal team to do some custom coding. I'm pretty sure they custom code...

IF you modify the source i'm pretty sure you lose support from Unreal though...

But I think it's better to ban on <censored> as Dukat said.

Hello,
I thought about that idea, but then when I have users saying "Why did it say <censored>?" and they get kicked, I'm going to be having a mess.

Thank you!

Make a badwords block change <censored> to [censored] or something. That way the bot will only see swears as <censored>, one cannot just type it out as that will appear to be [censored]
Why the hell can't my signature be empty?

Well the other thing to think about is, why not just let it censor the words and leave it be?

That's pretty much why +G turns bad words into <censored>

A lot of people censor themselves! Like: Who the *bleep* did that?

People write things just like that.

Come to think of it, I think you may be able to do something by using SPAM Filters. I've never used or learned about SPAM filters so I don't know for sure! You can check the docs, obviously assuming you own/manage this server... :)
