# General description

Bad Word Blocker is a Discord bot that can block bad words, links, and phrases. Everything that should be blocked is organized in a "blacklist" that can be accessed with the `/blacklist` slash command. It also supports strikes, limits, and channel/roles bypass.

# How it works

When a message is sent, the bot checks it against the blacklist. If it contains any blacklisted items, the message will be deleted. Optionally, you can set limits on how many times a user may use blacklisted items before receiving a punishment. See “Strikes and Limits” below.


# Features

## Strikes and Limits

If set up, every time a member gets their message deleted, they will get a "strike". With the limiting feature, you can set corresponding punishments for any strike amount. For example, you could set it up in such a way that it takes 2 strikes to get timed out, 3 strikes to get kicked, and 5 strikes to get banned.

## Customization 
    
When a message is blocked, by default, the bot will send an embed saying a message contained blacklisted items. The title, description, and color of the embed can be changed with `/customize embed`. Embeds can be disabled, or set to delete after a certain amount of seconds. [More on that here](https://bad-word-blocker.gitbook.io/bad-word-blocker-docs/customization/embed-customization)
    
## Logs

If a log channel is set with `/log set`, Bad Word Blocker will notify the channel when a message is blocked. [Click here for more](https://bad-word-blocker.gitbook.io/bad-word-blocker-docs/logs/log-when-message-blocked)

## Other Languages

Bad Word Blocker is an English bot. However, if you add non-English items to the blacklist, it will also work.
