COMMUNITY QUESTION
How do i check if a player inputed a bad word?
3 answers
use FilteredString = game.ChatService:FilterStringForBroadcast(playerSend,Message)
FilteredString will be the Message with all the bad words as #'s.

Use FilterStringForPlayerAsync(). It filters the text for whatever age the user is. Example:
local text = "[swear] you"
FilterStringForPlayerAsync(text, plr) -- make sure you have defined plr, this is just an example.
Here is the wiki page.

Mine isn't meant for a chat. It's meant to filter any string. It works for me in studio, so I don't know what's wrong with what you are doing.
FilterStringForBroadcast can be used normaly too. It just returns a string with no bad words. It's not only used for chats.
