You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want my server to add text to the chat system
  2. What is the issue? Include enough details if possible!
    Chatservice:Chat() doesnt print anything here
    Capture
  3. What solutions have you thought of so far?
    I spend an hour but my only options are to delete the built in chat system and create a whole entire new one. This is my last idea because i dont want to have to have to setup an anti swear bot and stuff. I know its 100% possible because another game called blox piece does it but i don’t know how.

You can add text from client using game.StarterGui:SetCore()
Example:

game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage", {
	Text = tostring("Hello from system!");
	Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansBold;
	Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255);
})

This can only be called from client though, to print server messages from the server you would need to run a RemoteEvent from the server to tell the client to send a system message.

I’m confused to what you mean by text?

tysm! its not from the system but fixing it to a remote function is much easier than creating a new chat system.
