Filter Words

Block certain words in your chat using Discord's automod.

Replace [prefix] with your server's prefix.

Words are filtered by utilizing Discord's automod feature. pretend will create an automod for your server and add to it for each word you filter. It is important that you do not delete this rule, all of your filtered words will be lost.

Add a Filtered Word

You can create a filtered word by using the following command:

// Syntax
[prefix]filter words add [word]

// Example
;filter words add naughty

Once you have created a word filter, pretend will send an embed confirming the word creation.

Users with Admin and Manage Server permissions are always exempt from filter rules. This is a Discord feature, we can't change this.

Whitelist & Unwhitelist

You can whitelist and unwhitelist certain channels from being triggered by Discord's automod.

Whitelist Channels

You can allow filtered words to be sent in certain channels. To do this, run the following command:
