; The Online Pub Censor Configuration
; -----------------------------------
;
; This file lets you define words and phrases (collectively known as just
; words) that should be considered offensive by TOP. The format of this file
; is relatively simple, and is similar to the format of the .ACT files used
; by TOP.
;
; Each word definition consists of three lines in this file. The
; function of each line is as follows:
;
; Line 1 - Severity level of the word (1-6, see below). If this number is
; prefixed with the letter W, TOP will only react if the text is a
; "whole word", i.e. if it is by itself. For example, if "crud"
; was defined as a whole word, it would NOT be censored if the
; user typed "crude". TOP strips all spaces and punctuation
; before checking "whole words", i.e. "Crud!" would be censored.
; Line 2 - The offensive text (not case-sensitive). Text is limited to
; 255 characters. Text may also include PubColour codes, which
; allows you to block out certain codes if desired.
; Line 3 - Text to substitute in place of the offensive word, or blank
; for no substitution. Has no effect for words of severity
; levels 1-3. The text does not have to be the same length as the
; text in line 2, and may include PubColour codes. TOP will
; always insert the text "as-is"; no case changes of any kind
; will be made.
;
; There are six different severity levels, used to "rank" the words from
; not very offensive (6) to absolutely forbidden (1). TOP will take a
; different action depending on the severity level of each word. The six
; severity levels and accompanying actions are outlined below:
;
; 6 - Allow/substitute, no action. Causes TOP to take no action against
; the user. This is obviously the default for all words NOT in this
; file. The purpose of allowing words to be specified with this
; level is twofold. One is to allow words that are close to offensive
; words to be defined as acceptable, provided these definitions
; appear _before_ the offensive word definition. The other purpose
; is so TOP can substitute text for words of this level without other
; action being taken.
;
; 5 - Allow/substitute, warn user. This will cause TOP to display a
; warning the user, and add one low-level warning to the user's
; total. TOP will never disconnect a user after saying one of these
; words, even if the user's low-level warning total exceeds the
; maximum allowed (see level 4 description).
;
; 4 - Allow/substitute, warn user with possible disconnect. This will
; cause TOP to show a warning to the user and add one low-level
; warning to the user's total, as with level 5. After adding the
; warning, TOP will check the user's low-level warning total. If it
; is higher than the maximum allowable limit, TOP will disconnect the
; user. Otherwise, the word will be allowed, or changed to the
; substitute text provided.
;
; 3 - Don't allow, warn user. This is similar to level 5, except that
; TOP will block sentences with words of this level. Also, TOP will
; add a warning to the user's high-level warning total instead of the
; low-level total. Again, TOP will never disconnect a user after
; saying words of this level.
;
; 2 - Don't allow, warn user with possible disconnection. This is just
; like level 4, except that TOP adds one to the high-level warning
; total and checks that against the maximum allowable limit.
;
; 1 - Don't allow, disconnect immediately. This is the most severe
; setting, and TOP will immediately disconnect a user who says a word
; of this level.
;
; Other Notes:
;
; - The low-level and high-level warning totals are seperate values.
; Please see the MaxCensorWarnLow and MaxCensorWarnHigh keywords in TOP.CFG
; for more information and to set the maximum allowable low-level and
; high-level totals.
;
; - Warnings can be subtracted over time, using the CensorTimerLow
; and CensorTimerHigh keywords in TOP.CFG.
;
; - Although the users typing offending text are notified when text is
; substituted, you may wish to use a method to highlight all substituted text,
; so that other users know the text is not exactly what the user typed. One
; idea is to surround the substitute text with two red flashing bars, for
; example "^I^m|^A^otext^I^m|^A^o".
;
; - Usage guidelines for the profanity censor can be found in TOP.DOC.
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; WARNING: CENSOR.CFG is used to censor conversations in TOP. However, in
; order to do this, TOP needs to know the offending words and phrases to look
; for. This file contains several examples of offensive terms. If you need to
; change this file, you will likely not be able to avoid reading some of these
; terms, and they may disturb the more sensitive among us. If this is the case,
; try to remember that their presence is for a positive reason (i.e. so they
; won't be seen during conversations), and not to offend people, or have
; somebody else (like a co-sysop) edit this file.
