Hey guys, so on the server I admin on we have a no text talk rule. Not
for things like wtf, lol, and lmao, but things like using u, r, y, ur,
in place of you, are, why, you're, and your. Right now it will only
correct the spellings if the letter are lines of their own. I'm trying
to figure out how to script it so that it corrects the errors in
sentences. The last time I tried it ended up correcting the error
whenever the letters were present in any sentence. For example,
someone would type "Shut up.", and the script would activate replying
with "you*" I want it to work when someone joins saying things like "y
u do dis ur a bitch" for it to activate and go "why* you* you're*" If
anyone has any ideas on how to make this happen, I would be extremely
happy!

YOU NEED REGULAR EXPRESSIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, slap some word boundaries in there, \b I think, and your
existing script will work probably.
