I need help regarding ChatService

[TheHazardCz (Hazardos)]

Hello, I was working on a script that would basically add tag to your name in chat and change your text color if you have sufficient rank in certain group, but the script isn’t working at all. Any idea what the problem could be?

local players = game:GetService("Players")
local serverScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")
local chatService = require(serverScriptService:WaitForChild("ChatServiceRunner"):WaitForChild("ChatService"))

chatService.SpeakerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    local Speaker = chatService:GetSpeaker(player)
    if player:GetRankInGroup(9965171) >= 254 then
        Speaker:SetExtraData("Tags", {{TagText = "Central Directory", TagColor = Color3.fromRGB(128, 0, 128)}})
        Speaker:SetExtraData("ChatColor", Color3.fromRGB(255, 198, 26))
    elseif player:GetRankInGroup(9965171) <= 253 and player:GetRankInGroup(9965171) >= 250 then
        Speaker:SetExtraData("Tags", {{TagText = "Administration", TagColor = Color3.fromRGB(230, 0, 230)}})
        Speaker:SetExtraData("ChatColor", Color3.fromRGB(255, 198, 26))
    else    
    end    
end)

I used Print to see if I could find the problem, but even the chatService.SpeakerAdded:Connect(function(player) does not run.

How to fire the SpeakerAdded event to update SetExtraData in game?

I am making a special chat tag for when someone purchases a gamepass using SetExtraData, however, since I am executing the SpeakerAdded event when the server is created, the player would still need to rejoin the game to get this tag. I have tried several things, such as disconnecting the event when the gamepass is purchased and firing the event again afterwards however it did not work. I have also tried caching data but it did not work either; specifically because this code runs when the server…
