Yes, when doing all the rules for vmr, please add this.

 

I was telling Jamie from the start we needed a chat filter

 

What if we just make it so that moderators can see VMR chat?

 

They would still have to change servers to moderate it effectively. Not to mention, why make it easier to enforce a rule when we can simply avoid the rule being broken

 

Chat filters never work right i have never had one that didnt glitch or screw up constantly. So unless jamie is willing to waste time on something like this -1.

 

Scunthorpe problem! If you are setting up something that blocks, say, the word "balls" you'll want to block "ball s" as it is a bypass. Then, if someone says "Want to play footBALL Smithysailor?" it gets filterex. Too much work to have a filter.

 

I agree with this, its impossible for a filter to be effective at directly blocking the offending words without having some sort of overlap. If you want to know more Tom Scott has a great video on it.

 

Except you don't need to block everything. I see no reason to block obvious bypasses since we're still going to have moderators around. So what that people might bypass, just ban them and be done with it. Any bypass rules out any of the current exceptions we have to the rule (slip ups or whatever)

 

Is it possible to have moderators in the VMR chat even while they are on the main server?

 

Yes and no. We can make it so the moderators can see VMR chat but they would still need to jump servers to moderate it. A needless process every time someone swears really.

 

could we have a plugin where if a staff sees something in vmr they can send an alert/message to the vmr chat by doing a command

 

Seems like a lot of work to avoid a chat filter...

 

scrap filter, this is just to help the hopping between servers for staff

 

Good idea, wonder why they cant do this on main server as well!
