🛡️ Chat Guardian

Say goodbye to basic word filters that only catch the obvious stuff. Chat Guardian is a next-generation moderation plugin for Minecraft that doesn’t just look at the words – it understands what players are saying.

Sure, it can catch simple swear words like any basic filter – But the real magic? It’s smart enough to detect meaning, not just keywords. Let’s say you ban the phrase “nobody likes you.” Other plugins stop there. But Chat Guardian? It also knows that “everybody hates you” means the same thing – and blocks it too!

How does it work? AI-Powered Semantic Moderation

Chat 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!

Configuration

Want 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!

Here’s a sample config that shows how easy it is to get started:

type: sentence2vec
delete: # if it matches, "go die", it will be deleted automatically
  "go die": 0.9
alert: # if it matches any of these, it will be alerted for
  "wanker": 0.55
  "fuck": 0.55
  "motherfucker": 0.55

The numbers represent a similarity threshold — 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.
