This is not intentional and is a bug. I have already got a fix for it

Had been getting reports of it here:
Personally experienced it here, although when I delayed hiding the chat with SetCoreGuiEnabled, it’s been happening less frequently:
Bug with the /t command:
“/t /t hi” says “hi” in team chat, should be “/t hi” in team chat
I guess I should just ignore /team commands when you are already in the team channel. /t /t breaks because it swallows the first /t, switches to the Team channel and then sends the rest of the message. Commands are still processed on the rest of the message so things like “/team /me hello world!” work.
I posted a bug report with switching team colors here, including a repro.
Edit: And a fix is coming.
I made a thread in developer discussions looking for feedback on the best way to allow developers to customize parts of the chat without overriding the whole thing.

Windows 10, in Studio.
Will the chat fading be smoothed?

Does this only happen in studio, or online? The chat fading in and out currently runs at 20 frames per second, so we could probably make it higher.
Only in Studio.
Can it be made 60 FPS?
edit: The chat GUI’s color also doesn’t fit with the top bar’s color, like it did previously.
edit2: It seems that chat messages only count as a command if they begin with "/e ".
Previously, if messages started with a / they wouldn’t get shown but that doesn’t seem to be how it is now.

If it’s a studio only problem, there might be more going on, I will investigate later. I will move this to ChatSettings though so developers can change it easily if they want to.
Can you add a “Disabled” button to this whole chat interface?
I rather not have roblox add 30 Scripts, modules and events hogging up the server for my game when Im not even going to use it. So please add a Disabled button.
EDIT: Really cool feature tho, it’s just that I already got my own chat system.

chatbardisabled, nothing has changed about this
I guess we could add a disabled property to Chat service. The performance impact should not be noticeable when the chat is not in use though.

@TheGamer101 What happend to the new “Admin commands” module, that was in the first 4 versions of the chat?
I ofc have a copy of it, but why isn’t it in the current updated chat?
Tbh, lots of admin scripts would probably add support for their admin in the chat.
It would be kind of limiting if there is already something by ROBLOX there.
(and because of all the different admin scripts that’ll ladd support, you have plenty of choice)
Awesome!
Sorry, if this has already been asked before, but I’m guessing we could just remove the chat like so:
StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.Chat, true)
And then use the new chat modules/scripts to “build” a new custom chat without future ROBLOX updates breaking it (or you could choose to keep editing the newest version of the chat)?
As far as I know, there was never an Admin commands module in the chat by default. Maybe you copied it from one of the example places we had, but it is not something we are going to provide by default.
If you want to modify this chat and don’t want to worry about future updates breaking it, you can copy all the components into Chat and save them there. Future updates will not break this and you can still have top bar integration.
