ImmersionGuard

ImmersionGuard keeps World of Warcraft chat focused on the game by hiding selected real-world discussions.

Features

• Filters English discussions about politics, religion, major news, and social or identity topics.
• Supports custom blocked phrases and allowed exceptions.
• Includes Balanced, Strict, and Custom Only filtering modes.
• Lets you choose separate filtering modes for public chat, guild and group chat, and whispers.
• Blocks repeat offenders through a dedicated player list.
• Shows a local message log with timestamps, channels, filtering reasons and optional class-colored names.
• Keeps the newest 100 blocked messages, with retention choices from one hour to Forever, or counters only (24 hours by default).
• Offers optional blocked-message notices and a five-minute pause.
• Includes a draggable minimap icon and a window scale setting.
• Stores settings and message history locally.

How to Use

Choose a protection profile and the topics you want to filter. Add your own phrases under Custom Rules, and review messages under Blocked Log. You can block a player directly from a log entry.

Click the minimap icon, open Options > AddOns > ImmersionGuard, or enter /iguard.

Made exclusively for World of Warcraft Forever, with compatibility updates for the latest patch as needed. Built-in topic rules use English phrases. Filtering uses text matching, so review your rules and allowed exceptions to suit your chat.
