How to rename the 'RBXGeneral' chat channel in TextChatService?

[itz_HD3X (Archio)]

1. What do you want to achieve?
   I’ve recently switched to using the new TextChatService system in my game. However, the default “General” channel (RBXGeneral) doesn’t suit the theme of my game. Is there any way to either rename this channel or remove it entirely in favor of a custom one?

2. What is the issue?
   As mentioned earlier, there’s no clear or straightforward way to modify or replace the default “General” channel in the new TextChatService system. I’m looking for guidance on how to either change the channel name or remove it entirely.

3. What solutions have you tried so far?
   I have searched for solutions on the DevForum, but unfortunately, I couldn’t find any relevant results or guides about my issue.

Unfortunately, there isn’t quite a straightforward solution to this. I’m pretty sure the Script that renames RBXGeneral to the General channel is a CoreScript, which isn’t accessible in-game.

Your best option would be to turn off the CreateDeafultTextChannels property under TextChatService, create a new TextChannel parented under TextChatService and add Players who join with TextChannel:AddUsersAsync().

Side note: This would make team chat and whisper text commands useless. There isn’t a way to exclude certain deafult text channels from being created currently
