Forever Chat Filter

Hide the chat lines you don't want to see, like gold spam, boost ads or a topic you're tired of, so Trade and General are readable again.

Features

• Blocklist: add any word, phrase or player name, and lines containing it disappear from the channels you choose. Matching is whole-word and ignores case. Example: blocking Elon hides "Elon's" and "@elon" but not "Melon" or "belong".
• Channel Choice: pick which channels to filter. Trade and General are on by default; others like Say, Guild and Whisper are off until you tick them.
• Gold/Boost Pack: built in and on by default. It hides gold selling ("cheap gold", "wts gold") and boost ads ("cheap power leveling", "fast leveling" with a website link) even with an empty Blocklist. It skips Guild, Officer and Party, leaves Discord and community links like Wowhead alone, and normal chat like "power leveling my alt, pm me if you want to group" still shows.
• Hide Blocked Chat Bubbles: when a Say, Yell or Party line is hidden, the speech bubble over that player's head is hidden too.
• Hits Tab: see what was hidden this session, newest first, with the channel and the matched word in red. A count bubble on the tab turns red when there are new hits.
• Hide Counts: each blocked word shows how many lines it has hidden.
• Report Missed Spam: if an ad gets through, right-click the sender's name and pick Report Missed Spam to save their last few lines into your saved variables file to send us.

How To Use

• Click the gold speech-bubble button on the minimap to open the window. Right-click it for the Filter tab, and drag it to move it.
• Slash commands:
  • /fcf: open or close the window
  • /fcf add <word> or /fcf remove <word>: edit your Blocklist
  • /fcf list: print your Blocklist with counts
  • /fcf hits: open the Hits tab
  • /fcf miss <name>: save a missed-spam report
  • /fcf help: list all commands

Notes

• Lines are only hidden on your screen. Nobody is ignored, muted or reported, and your real ignore list is never touched.
• Chat bubbles are not hidden in dungeons or raids, because the game locks them there.
• Hits are kept for the session only and are never uploaded.
• Works with or without Forever Core.
