This shiz is garbo.
Scammer developers. you pay them money for PRO version, then instead of fixing the plugin as promised or adding new features that they've been talking about FOREVER - they just force their current users to repurchase a new bullshit version.
!!! VVVV ~~~ Regarding the *********** STAN below ~~~ VVVV !!!
1) You cant decompile and "see for youself" without first purchasing the new version lmao
2) Also - even if a-lot of the code is different, if you know anything about programming you know that once you've made something once and have all that existing code-base and the full skeleton for it - its much easier to go back and optimize it or remake it - i in NO WAY believe the devs spent their claimed "10000 hours reprogramming it" - if they did, they suck as devs.
3) It's not some simple "dispute" between the plugin dev and spigot - they used spigot (the most popular plugin site) to get popular, then repeatedly tried to break rules by advertising their own shitty website, then threw a tantrum when spigot refused to let them re-post trhe same plugin trying to scam their customers
4) Other plugins go through optimizations and reprogramming without forcing users who have already purchased to have to do so AGAIN all the time, its scummy and greedy, no doubt about it - we EXPECT optimizations from time to time when we buy a fucking 20$ plugin.

I don't understand why some people can't read their announcements. They still support ChatControl Free and Pro which are amazing plugins, Pro has been updated yesterday, they left spigot after a conflict so they are no longer publishing here but you can get it there:
https://github.com/kangarko/chatcontrol-pro/releases
Code is no longer obfuscated, anyone can decompile and see for themselves that this is in fact a completely different code base, they've clearly put a lot of effort into it. I've been running Pro for 3 years now without issues what so ever.
Regarding RGB support someone mentioned – RGB was non-existent at the time Free version was rewritten that was long time ago! -

Double-Standard plugin...
They purposely not allowed to use RGB in Free edition but allowed on Pro Edition. I can't even write on Prefix nor Chat System. EssentialsX can do that instantly. -

Good plugin, but the configs are like learning an entire new language. I would love to see easier configuration options in the future for someone with no java experience at all.

In my opinion, this is the best chat plugin. I've been using it for awhile and I love how if you are opped it does not apply because it gets pretty annoying when you are trying to type lots of commands but this plugin ends that. Its so cool because of the more extra features like grammar. 100/100 definitly get this plugin!!!

Its a good plugin but i would like to see more customisation in the files, i would like it if you was able to change the message for spam and the command ect as Instead of a kick for spam a mute would be more suitable in my eyes but apart from that its a decent plugin.

Thank you. You can change these messages in localization/messages_en.yml file, and all commands in settings.yml files or rules/ folder.

A very nice plugin. But I have 1 question - is it possible to change the displayed messages in the chat?

So why only four stars if you only had a question?

Good plugin, really good for general chat stuff, i'm wondering if it works with 1.16?

This plugin removes the option to opt out from bStats. It's not that I want to, it's that it's taking away my freedom of choice.
Otherwise would put 5 star-

It great for minimal plugins or a ton of ram but my server used it and started losing TPS and Ram space. I had to remove it and that fixed the issue.

Sorry for having performance issues, I've just run some testing and couldn't reproduce on 1.15.2 nor 1.8.8. Please PM me with your timings report and your configuration to get this solved.
