  Read on for information on how to activate the Term Filter.
  

<<New Features>>
Argument	Function
(i)	Causes the term filter to ignore case sensitivity. Ex.: If prohibited.txt contains the term “(i)Potion”, then terms such as “POTION,” “potion,” “Potion” and “PoTion”—as well as similar variants—will all be prohibited.
(s)	Causes the term filter to ignore spaces. Ex.: If prohibited.txt contains the term “(s)Potion,” then terms such as “p otion,” “pot ion,” and “potio n” will all be prohibited.
(n)	Causes the term filter to ignore the settings for the term if it appears in the name of a player character. EX.: If prohibited.txt contains the term “(n)chocobo,” then messages sent from the character “Blackchocobo” will be displayed normally.

• Setting Multiple Arguments

  The three terms can be combined in any permutation by including one or more within the same set of parentheses.

  Ex.: If prohibited.txt contains the term “(is)chocobo,” then terms such as “ChocoBo” and ”CHO co bo” will all be prohibited.
  
  Ex.: If prohibited.txt contains the term “(isn)chocobo,” then terms such as “ChocoBo” and “CHO co bo” will be prohibited, but messages from the character “Blackchocobo” will continue to be displayed.

* The arguments do not count toward the 30 character limit for terms recognized by the Term Filter.
* The arguments will not function properly if any of the following are true.

• Double byte characters are used
• The parentheses are not closed
• Arguments other than i, s, or n are contained in the parentheses.

• We plan to expand Term Filter functionality in upcoming version updates.

• The linkshell concierge will now only accept linkpearls from characters for whom 45 days or more (Earth time) have passed since character creation.
