It would be nice to add some conditions to determine if then action is triggered or not.

for example, I have rule to match bad language and change entirely message to something innocent. I want to keep it that way for players, but for staff i want only (silently) block message.

something like:

match ^.*swear.*$
if permission perm.staff
    then warn Watch your language, there are kids this server!
    then deny
else
    then replace I am uneducated person.

This can currently be done as follows:

match ^.*swear.*$ require permission perm.staff then warn Watch your language, there are kids on this server! then deny

match ^.*swear.*$ ignore permission perm.staff then replace I am an uneducated person

Do you think that having the ability to do conditional execution is a better approach?

@Sage905: Go

i think. your way only make rules file large and its not good for performance, if server have to match same regex over and over only because i want another 'then' action depend on permission. also very large rules file is intricate

I'm going to accept this ticket, though I need to think through it a bit more before coming to a solution. It's not at the top of my priority list, but I will get to it after I finish up a few other features I've been working on.
