For example, see: https://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/servers/show/pc/e746eba6-4e93-4310-b14f-a0f55332a9ec/TNT-1-GULF-OF-OMAN-Conquest-discord-tnt-community/

Here, you can see bots use fake names with auto-generated characters: image

After reading the source, it's clear you can use Regex to filter these - great!

For anyone who reads this, I used: YR_PRSNL_.* Perhaps this could be added to the readme? It's a great feature.

Many thanks for all your work, this plugin is essential

Hi, glad you like the plugin and the feature!

Btw it is mentioned in the README under "Known Issues and Limitations".

Ah, I was referring to it being capable of handling wildcards and regex specifically, made it really useful for all those bots with very similar names

Ah sorry, yes you're right. I'm adding a note about it, thanks!
