Transform your server's chat with color codes, custom prefixes, and granular permission control — all in one lightweight plugin.
⚡ Features
🎨 Color Codes in Messages
Players can use Minecraft's standard color codes (&a, &b, &c, ...) directly in chat — making conversations more vibrant and expressive than ever.
🏷️ Custom Prefixes
Give players or groups unique prefixes to reflect their role on the server. Configure them via in-game commands or the config file — no restart needed.
🔐 Permission Management
Fine-grained control over who can use what:
- Restrict color codes to specific ranks
- Enable or disable messaging features per player
- Keep your chat clean and abuse-free
📜 User-Friendly Commands
Simple, intuitive commands to manage everything on the fly. Reload the config without restarting your server — changes apply instantly.

.jarfile - Drop it into your server's
/pluginsfolder - Restart your server
