Stop message from showing up?

[Pooglies]

So I have this script that makes a gui with a player thing, its for roleplaying purposes, but the message is showing up the player typing /me, etc. Any help with hiding the chat bubble?

function onChatted(msg, player)
	local filteredText = game.Chat:FilterStringForBroadcast(msg,player)
    if filteredText:sub(1,4) == "/me " then
		local roleplay = filteredText:sub(5)
		game.ServerStorage.RPText:Clone().Parent = game.Workspace[player.Name].Head
		local action = game.Workspace[player.Name].Head.RPText
		action.Frame.Display.Text = "[" .. player.Name .. "] - " .. "***" .. roleplay .. "***"
		

		wait(7)
		action:Destroy()
    end
end
 
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    player.Chatted:connect(function(message) onChatted(message, player) end)
end)

I’m pretty sure there is a setting somewhere to turn on the /me command (through the core chat scripts), but that wouldn’t hide the bubble chat. To hide the bubble, you would have to fork the actual chat scripts, or send chat through a remote event and then send that to the chat scripts.

There is no built in way to remove players messages or bubble chat after they send it. The only way you could do this is through a alternative core script or text box and remote event. You could also try searching for when the billboard gui is created and destroy it, but that could be unreliable.

How do you delete a chat message?

I think you’ll want to prevent the chat message from being sent in the first place instead of figuring out how to delete it. For this, you can bring out a bit of the Lua Chat System repository to Studio and add to it so it fits your admin commands. The rest of the scripts will automatically insert themselves. In the Chat service, insert the following: Folder ClientChatModules Folder CommandModules BoolValue InsertDefaultModules <true> Once this is done, insert a ModuleScript, your…

Can I Develop my own Chat Filtering System? Is it allowed?

Yes, there is actually. The beauty of the Lua Chat System and it’s extensive customisation options is quite amazing. Here’s a relink to documentation if you need it: https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Lua-Chat-System I don’t recommend blocking out chats without also telling the user why the chat was blocked or that it was in the first place, which is what the hashtags are meant to do. In the end it’s your structure though and I’m offering an unasked opinion. What you’re going to need…

The last thread in this list is relevant because it prevents sending a message although with a different criteria. You can apply the same principle by checking if the message starts with /me. If it does, then prevent the message from being sent.
