RexChat is a modern chat management plugin designed for survival, SMP and network servers that want a clean, customizable and user‑friendly chat experience.

It replaces the default Minecraft chat with formatted messages, colors, mentions, emojis, item previews and quality‑of‑life tools for both players and staff. With RexChat you can fully control how your chat looks for each group, disable annoying chat reports, let players choose their own chat color, and keep everything clean with powerful clear and mute commands.

Everything is configured through simple YAML files, so you can quickly adapt the plugin to any server style – from small survival communities to larger networks.

✨ Main Features​

  • Per‑group chat formatting with support for prefixes, hover info and placeholders
  • ClearChat and MuteChat commands for fast moderation
  • Custom join and leave messages
