[Suggestion] Language filtering and blocking

Recently, I have noticed that people who are incredibly frustrated with the server, and intend to leave forever, ban themselves by using a string of highly inappropriate language. Is it possible to create a filtering system where if someone swears, or something similar, that what was said does not show up on the chat feed for everyone else to read, as well as being warned or banned?

You'd probably have to put with a half second / second chat log while it searches the logs. Probably a little less during the night, but perhaps a bit more during the higher stress periods of the day, as well as it eating CPU power.

I'd say its unfeasible only because of the processor power vs players and the server. For every chat you see, there's pleeeenty more group chat that you dont. And while helpbot doesnt interfere with groupchat, it certainly does see it. I think Intelli has made it so helpbot just ignores guild chat.
