## How Do I use this bot?

Mostly, you don't! The Banned-Word-Tracker bot is largely a passive tracker. Server admins will ban some words for the server ("asdf" for example), and then the bot just waits to see how long people can go without saying that word.

Unlike your bog-standard word ban-list, this bot tries to catch users being tricky and avoiding it. We do this using the unicode confusables list to see if a word is confusable for another. As an easy example: if the banned word is 'asdf', the bot should be able to detect all of these: '-a-s-d-f-', 'á$df', 'aSdF', '|||a||||s||||d||f|||', among others.

If you're an administrator looking to add this bot: check out the [initial setup page](https://bwbdiscord.gitbook.io/banned-word-tracker/interacting-with-the-bot/how-the-bot-works).
