Stop Toxicity in Online Games | Gaming Psychology
summary
Claims a real-time, proactive system that detects rising aggression before insults appear and nudges players toward better choices. Platform named Felixa combines community analytics (14 behavioral attributes of EQ), a Discord bot that scans comment trajectories, and an intervention layer that pushes nudges, mini-courses and rewards. Pilot with one influencer reports community improvement in three months; internal validation shows near-perfect correlation versus human raters and a higher sensitivity to aggressive tone.
