Bool Variable with RemoteEvents

Hello!
I have tried to pass a Bool Variable from Client to Server using a RemoteEvent.
However, the server seems to ignore the argument.
This works like that:

Client:

local RED_NAMETAG = false (Variable)

BUTTON.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if table.find(STAFF_USERNAMES, player.Name) then
		if RED_NAMETAG == false then
			RED_NAMETAG = true
			EVENTEN:FireServer(player, RED_NAMETAG)
		elseif RED_NAMETAG == true then
			RED_NAMETAG = false
			EVENTEN:FireServer(player, RED_NAMETAG)
		end
	else
		player:Kick("You are not allowed to use this feature. Did you see this button by error? Do not hesitate to report a potential bug. Your action has been logged.")
	end
end)

And, Server-side:

local function ONSERVER(player, RED_NAMETAG)
	if RED_NAMETAG == true then
		player.Character.Head:FindFirstChild("NAMETAG").PlayerName.TextColor3 = Color3.new(1, 0, 0.0156863)
	elseif RED_NAMETAG == false then
		player.Character.Head:FindFirstChild("NAMETAG").PlayerName.TextColor3 = Color3.new(1, 1, 1)
	else
		error("Variable not found.")
	end
end

EVENTEN.OnServerEvent:Connect(ONSERVER)

What exactly happens? Well, the server seems to ignore the argument “RED_NAMETAG”, so the server takes the “else” way (error("Variable not found.")).
What am I doing wrong ? Can you help me please.
Thank you.

Hello. I noticed that you are firing the events with the player argument. The first variable by default is taken as the player. Please remove that. Hope this helps! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

EVENTEN:FireServer(RED_NAMETAG)

Note: Do not change in the server.

Alright, it works now! Thank you a lot.
