If you use this, you can enforce the code of conduct much easier. :)

Do those of us who do read it get a cookie?

No, but you can log out, delete all your cookies, and log back in to the forums and you get one.

Im still registered p2p, so... where's my cookie?

Hmm, could use a few edits.. like instead of..

NPC Code:

---

addstring client.message,The word "#I(this.restrictedwords,i)" is not permitted on this server.;

---

make it..

NPC Code:

---

addstring client.message,OMS WTF U FEWL "#I(this.restrictedwords,i)" NOT ALLOWED CUZ U R BAD;

---

lol That WOULD be funny if someone put that on their server..

I like his idea :D

DONT FREEKIN STEAL IT OK!?
THATS FOR EVERWORLD >:O

Nice one, Arcadius. Hehe.

Simple script to create. Probably could be done much more efficient as well..nice concept though.

It can get more complicated, depending on what you want. For example, how would you make it so that people can turn the filter on or off, such that the player could choose whether or not he wanted certain words filtered?

Well, even then it couldn't get very long...depending on how nice you would want it to look. Turning it on or off would be extremely simple, and the choosing words can be, depending on how you want the play to input the data. If you want it to look very nice, with your own custom typing stuff (keydown2), then it could get a little longer. If you just use the chat box, then its easy.

It doesn't have to be long to be complicated.

Then explain how you would script it.

so what words does it censor

Take a guess genius.

During christmas I cant sing ym favorite song (not favorite song but favorite holiday song) because new mainmakes it "Dawn we now our happy apparel"

Any words you want.

He probably doesn't know how to script -_-

NPC Code:

---

setstring this.restrictedwords,ghey,plz,pls;//censored words

---

See that line (It's the 30th line of the script), well, it's where the words to be censored are. Here, the words "ghey", "plz" and "pls" are censored, you can add more words by seperating each word with a comma.

Er you don't need to be a scripter to be able to read the posts in this thread to understand what we're talking about.

Hes a player ,does asking a question necessitate sarcasm and negativity?
How does one learn if they dont ask questions?
And does their desire to learn increase with helpfulness or decrease with sarcasm and negativity?

How would I know which words they are censoring if the script they posted didn't list all the words they're censoring huh genius?

You asked "so what words does it censor". All the censored words are included in the script, so it was perfectly possible for you to find out for yourself.

I don't like the newmain censor; if you say pplz as in peoples, it goes to pplease :P

There's a solution. Yep. Guess what it is.

No it doesn't

Actually, yes it does. The words "ghey", "pls" and "plz" are being censored.

Add "pplz" to the list of censored words?

what the?that's all the words?what about the F words and B words and all those other words?

Ah, again you try to correct people on issues with which you have no competence.

He already explained why he didn't include those words in the script.

Actually, no. The solution is this: Don't use idiot-speak.

The script woulnd't be needed if there was no idiot speak

Swearing is not necessarily equivalent to idiot speak.

Well, they're in the censor on Bomy Moon, but Jeff removed them from the script he posted because the forum censor would automaticly censor them out. If you're going to use the script online though, it's not really that hard to add them in.

I am with you Houdini. I want a cookie, riot!
:o

If only there was a script to rid people like you.

I'll get to work on it immediatly.

If only it was possible :(

It could get complicated, depending on how you did that.

I would think I would do it with a little button in the gui you click, and it sets a variable to true or false, true being on false being off.

Yeah, Kaimetsu, it wouldn't get that complicated turning it on and off for an individual. :\


Another script for you PW people who don't read the NPC Forum:

I'm asking how you would script the censor system, not how the user interface would work. I think you greatly underestimate the difficulties involved.

As do you. I am not describing a system that selectively filters people, but rather one that allows the person to choose whether or not they see the profanity. How would either of you edit Jeff's script to allow this functionality?

Since message text shows globally, I am guessing that you would have to blank out all player's chat text and use showimg above their head depending on whether they would want to see it censored or not. Too much work for that. Just make it so that every room is a chat room and it shows it in a little box or something.

It could get even more complicated, too. Example: When the censor replaces words with less offensive alternatives, the words could appear in blue.
