Based on my experience of chat filtering in running a minecraft server. I also created a IP filter mod for minecraft on a bungee based multi world system etc. , but even that ended up banning people because of ISP dynamic IP's -But enough big headed bragging.-
When i implemented a word filter, the actual filter became a game to conquer in it self by people. Almost a game in itself.
So, people would play lets beat the word filter. It helped a little, but soon became a running joke.
Even when I implement Regex's to the filter words, people where either beating the system or getting blocked for silly combinations of words, even with a 1000 lines of regex's and filtered words it was a nightmare.
E.g. there is reason why Twitch streamers don't just rely on computer based word filtering, and have human moderators to back it up.
