Is it possible to get PB to kick clients for admin defined censored/banned words?

keep in mind kids play this game too and the cursing is bad enough... we don't allow it either....

I was in both the Navy and the Army... and the Officer's kept people in check there too. :o

I did my 20 also...... and???

Ask any Vet from WW2 or The 'Nam .... on the battlefield language is no problem - surviving is.

The next thing you'll want is "no blood & gore" because kids play... gimme a break.

"All's fair in love & war".

Can you tell I despise "Control Freaks"? :P


Kids today, can teach you some wonderful expletives, their peers do a far better job at teaching them than any one liner in CoD can.

Besides, its quite clear on the box - TEEN ESRB

Lighten up, enjoy the game, don't hobble it else, your server will sit and sleep .... people will simply not use your server.

If somebody doesn't come to my server because I kick for cursing, then I am glad that they don't. The only people that need to swear are those to ignorant to be able to say something without speaking like an unintelligent boon.

Since no one has actually answered Sonic's question, I guess I will.

No Sonic, PB won't kick for bad language. It can kick for bad names, but not bad language. If you want to auto kick for bad language, you'll need to use 3rd party software such as ServerWatch.

hey roc

ok i gues im going off topic but anyhow i really feel that its the "young ones" that mostly swear on servers ,older peeps i gues know that talkin bullshit brings them nowhere....

so the bad language kick would be more to protect the oldies from being called @*$&*($^$(% by lil 12 year old skool boys :? loL

besides i dont think a swear filter can be made since the localization file cant be modified (i think)

Had a 12 year old come on our server and call me a noob. :!:

Lost the meaning of that one at that point considering I've been in gaming for 15 years and I'm 30.... :clap:

I see your point !

ServerWatch can kick for bad language. It allows you to setup a bad word list and you can choose how many badwords and warnings they get before they are kicked. And how many before they are banned. See the ServerWatch forum below this one. Its takes alittle to setup SW but once its running its rocks. Works the best if your gaming server is linux.

Since your kicking for "bad" language shouldn't you also kick people for shooting each other..I mean if your worried about the impact of foul language on the impressionable mind of a 12 year old then surely you wouldn't want them to think shooting the other players is ok.

You'll definitly have to ban anyone who sneaks up and people and bashes them in the head...We can't have the kids thinking thats o.k. now can we.. And god forbid you have cooking grenades on your server.....Imagine what it would do to a childs delicate psyche to see people running into a bunker with a cocked grenade and suicide bomb the people inside.***gasp***

Just so you know I'm the proud father of 17 year old triplets. As such I worry a little more about the bad habits my kids pick up at school rather than the language they're exposed to in a video game. The language at school by the way is far worse...

I agree with you about foul language, of this there is no doubt. But.... the more prohibitive controls we have available, the more the nitwit control freaks will use. Its not up to the Admins as to how ppl will use language, its up to the users themselves. If a player wishes to make himself look totally foolish and ignorant, then so be it.

We can kick anyone who is a foul-mouthed jerk, that's not a problem. What is a problem is the added overhead for all the mickey mouse controls ppl ask for.

As I'm certain you'll agree, we need all the system resources we can grab for smooth, fast server operation. The "kick player" is already in the Cvars why go for redundancy?

I want my servers to use the best part of the resources available for gameplay not ego. Use what we have... the cvar works fine or...

Install TW 2.3a it has a kick, blow-up, suspend, etc.. player menu in the rcon menu. :smile:

I was going to respond to the language issue, but it woud havel fallen upon deaf ears.

It has enlightened me as to where the problem originated, though.

Fair warning, if you curse on my servers, the swear filter will ban you from them and leave me with a smile on my face.
