personal in-game chat filters!
so to reduce the amount of toxicity and stuff that gets thrown around post-game and to save people the headache, i wonder if its possible to implement a feature that allows users to filter out certain words used in negative contexts (using a system that detects words used in a certain order, basically a string searcher), or phrases that are used, or they can completely mute a player via IP if they don't want to read their messages, but still want to share the gg's with the others.
how the filter would handle messages is by allowing you to choose whether you want to censor, completely ignore/hide a message (still able to view by clicking on it), or straight up mute the person as soon as they set off the filter.
a notification would then show up, explaining that a user's message was hidden or that a user was muted, and it'll give you the option to view what was said, though you're able to disable these notifications any time or decide which notifications would show in-game.
just a little thought i had. it might make people feel a little better about being able to talk in post-game with the ability to personally remove taunt messages and such.
