I'm trying a new system on the development server, as well as the crystals update. The language filters now run when the chat is being parsed for sending to the client, rather than when the chat is received.

This will inevitably have issues, I expect some players may find their names get filtered? We'll have to wait and see. It does however mean, if we do it this way round I can provide the option to disable the filter on a per player basis.

So on the development server you'll now find an option to turn off the language filter. If it works then we'll no longer need to enforce bad language rules and it wont matter if the filter is a bit over zealous, as you can just turn it off if it bugs you.
