There is currently no chat filter. There is a bot with a chat filter function on the server, but it currently serves no purpose.I think they do have one, but it might not be active. and staff are always watching chat and they get pinged for everything.
This is what is stopping me from agreeing with this. Sometimes swearing is needed in certain contexts.A chat filter has the main downsides of possibly filtering words that are acceptable, just seem similar to blocked words as well as preventing people using words in an okay context like asking if something is punishable.
That could be solved by stopping the filter(hiding the channel from the bot) on channels like staff helpThis is what is stopping me from agreeing with this. Sometimes swearing is needed in certain contexts.
I used quite few bots when I used to be admin on some servers, it can be customized and some have the ignore channel built in them, or ignore rolesThat could be solved by stopping the filter(hiding the channel from the bot) on channels like staff help
