Say goodbye to basic word filters that only catch the obvious stuff. Chat Guardian is a next-generation moderation plugin for Minecraft that doesn\u2019t just look at the words \u2013 it understands what players are saying.<\/p>\n
Sure, it can catch simple swear words like any basic filter \u2013
\n
\nBut the real magic? It\u2019s smart enough to detect meaning, not just keywords. Let\u2019s say you ban the phrase \u201cnobody likes you.\u201d Other plugins stop there. But Chat Guardian? It also knows that \u201ceverybody hates you\u201d means the same thing \u2013 and blocks it too!
\n<\/p>\n
## How does it work? AI-Powered Semantic Moderation
\nChat Guardian uses sentence embedding technology (like Sentence2Vec) to go beyond exact matches. It calculates how similar a message is to your banned phrases, allowing for flexible, customizable, and context-aware moderation. No more clever bypasses or near-miss insults slipping through the cracks!<\/p>\n
## Configuration
\nWant to be super strict on slurs but relaxed on light insults? No problem! Want to detect passive-aggressive behavior or subtle toxicity? Just add a few phrases and tweak the sensitivity!<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a sample config that shows how easy it is to get started:
\n“`
\ntype: sentence2vec
\ndelete: # if it matches, “go die”, it will be deleted automatically
\n “go die”: 0.9
\nalert: # if it matches any of these, it will be alerted for
\n “wanker”: 0.55
\n “fuck”: 0.55
\n “motherfucker”: 0.55
\n“`<\/p>\n
The numbers represent a similarity threshold \u2014 the higher the number, the closer in meaning a message must be to the blacklisted phrase to get flagged. Adjust these values to make moderation more relaxed or more strict, depending on what your community needs.<\/p>\n
## Permissions
\n“`yaml
