FILTER CHANNEL ADMIN

    Usage: FILTER CHANNEL ADMIN

    This command controls who may set a room to be filtered for profanity. It can be set to ALL, NONE, CHANOP, IRCOP, SA, or ADMIN. If it is set to all then all rooms will be filtered. If it is set to none then no rooms will be filtered. The admin option causes only +L rooms to be filtered and only allows server admins to set a room +L..

    Example:
    /as filter channel admin

    This is a good setting if you want censorship to only be set rarely and by people you trust a great deal.


    FILTER CHANNEL ALL

    Usage: FILTER CHANNEL ALL

    This will cause all text in all rooms to be filtered unless specifically specified otherwise in the LOCAL or REMOTE settings.

    Example:
    /as filter channel all

    This is useful for networks that want to monitor profanity as much as possible.


    FILTER CHANNEL CHANOP

    This command controls who may set a room to be filtered for profanity. It can be set to ALL, NONE, CHANOP, IRCOP, SA, or ADMIN. If it is set to all then all rooms will be filtered. If it is set to none then no rooms will be filtered. The chanop option allows the room operators to set their rooms +L..

    Example:
    /as filter channel chanop

    This gives control over profanity filtering to the people who run the room. This is ideal for a less restrictive network.


    FILTER CHANNEL IRCOP

    This command controls who may set a room to be filtered for profanity. It can be set to ALL, NONE, CHANOP, IRCOP, SA, or ADMIN. If it is set to all then all rooms will be filtered. If it is set to none then no rooms will be filtered. The ircop option causes only +L rooms to be filtered and allows network operators to set a room +L..

    Example:
    /as filter channel ircop

    This gives the power to filter rooms to a fairly large number of people, but still only to those who are specifically trusted by the network.


    FILTER CHANNEL LOCAL

    Usage: FILTER CHANNEL LOCAL <setting> [option]

    This controls how messages to the room from local users are dealt with. WARN can be set on or off. You can set one of the other three options. WARN controls what the sender sees while the other options control what the recipient sees.

    CENSOR - Replace the offending text with asterisks
    DROP - Block the entire message
    NONE - Perform no profanity filtering
    WARN - Send a warning to the sender

    Examples:
    /as help filter channel local <topic>

    You should generally set warn on unless you have local set to none. Otherwise the sender will not know that the message contained offensive text.


    FILTER CHANNEL NONE

    Usage: FILTER CHANNEL NONE

    This prevents profanity filtering from happening in any rooms.

    Example:
    /as filter channel none

    This is a good setting if you want your users to be able to say anything they want within rooms.


    FILTER CHANNEL REMOTE

    Usage: FILTER CHANNEL REMOTE <setting> [option]

    This controls how messages to the room from remote users are dealt with. WARN can be set on or off. You can set one of the other three options. WARN controls what the sender sees while the other options control what the recipient sees.

    CENSOR - Replace the offending text with asterisks
    DROP - Block the entire message
    NONE - Perform no profanity filtering
    WARN - Send a warning to the sender

    Examples:
    /as help filter channel remote <topic>

    You should generally set warn on unless you have remote set to none. Otherwise the sender will not know that the message contained offensive text.


    FILTER CHANNEL SA

    This command controls who may set a room to be filtered for profanity. It can be set to ALL, NONE, CHANOP, IRCOP, SA, or ADMIN. If it is set to all then all rooms will be filtered. If it is set to none then no rooms will be filtered. The sa option causes only +L rooms to be filtered and allows services administrators to set a room +L..

    Example:
    /as filter channel sa

    This gives a moderate number of people the ability to filter rooms. But room filtering will probably still be somewhat uncommon. This is good if you want it only to be set occasionally, but to still have a decent number of people able to set it when they think it appropriate.
