Make a customizable chat filter.
Whenever the player sees a word they don't like, they highlight the word and right click on the word. This puts the highlighted into their own personal chat filter dictionary.
Allow more complex editing through notepad. (spam prevention, word spreading prevention. non-native language filtering)
Yea no..
cause this doesn't fix any thing
if you just bleep out words then instead of seeing
" I hope you get Cancer and die"
you see
" I hope you get @#$@! and !@#"
cause that's so much better?
the player is still being toxic and needs to be banned or worse
I hope you !#2 !@#! mother !@#!@#!$ !@#! a horrible @#$#$@ing Death. From Getting @!#$@#$@ and just suffering For years you #$#@$ gay $#@@%@%@# "
Again The person is still being toxic and a chat filter fixes nothing for that person attitude and game play experience.
Or people could just not be dicks. Your solution is great for a game. My solution is great for humanity.
How to: effective chat control without account bans
Learn some manners at home, don't bring your shit onto other people.
I don't think this would work or be of value.
We already know from the early chat restrictions that people who can't be toxic in chat will find other ways of griefing.
This would only "benefit" the very, very small percentage of people who can't figure out how to not be toxic. Why should Riot spend money on them?
People would just figure out how to insult people without triggering the filter. I'm fond of saying (not in game, of course), "If I had my way, there would be a filter in every urethra to eliminate your type." Your filter wouldn't be able to handle that.
It places the burden on the wrong person. We shouldn't have to waste our time tuning the filter so you can behave however you want.
