Suggestion: TownyChat Spam Filter (censor, caps, etc)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Now that Towny has its own Chat module, users who wish to use TownyChat may 
have conflicts getting it to play nice with their spam/censor plugins. Rather 
than try to deal with being compatible with various other plugins, it might be 
easier for everyone to just add an optional Spam/Censor filter to TownyChat.

TownyChat already has a message-per-time based limit for reducing spam, however 
the following additions are also needed as soon as possible:
-Prevent CAPS lock messages (messages with more than 1 word that contain 50% or 
more capital letters are blocked)
-Simple Censor (block messages that contain full words, not partial matches, 
from a word list)

More advanced considerations for future versions:
-Ability to punish users with a certain action after so many violations in a 
given cooldown time period.
-Ability to auto-ban after user has been punished X times. List forgets about 
violations after a certain time, to avoid unfairly banning long-term users.
