    How does that not help you?

    It's the chat formatting for essentials chat. You need to change the format in the essentials config file.

    SnazySc, This is multi verse you need to check with multiverse configs, or you can override this by editing your prefix in your permissions plugin this will make it go away.

    We do not link to you stuff that is not relevant, you need to read what is given I do not accept lazyness if you are trying to run your server, as mmorton89 said

    define your Group instead of having it {group}
    eg)
    Code:
    group-formats:
      Owner: '&f[&4Owner&f] {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    
    get rid of the 2 lines above that which defines global chat

    I tried this, and Its still failing to work
    Now I just get

    <[Owner]Austin>
    When my Objective is
    [Owner] Austin:REDTEXT

    Dose the DISPLAYNAME Also need to be filled in?
    And if I did this im assumeing i might have to delete the prefix in pex?

    ALSO I tried ChatManager, And Im unable to get it working, it always shows up as disabled :S

    Are you trying to remove the " < [prefix] username [suffix] > : hi world " this thing
    Code:
    <>

    SnazySc

    i think <> is put in by essentials chat, because there is no <> in his format.

    And I think this is there by default. :p not 100% shure.

    Ahhh, That explains it alot actually..

    Is there a different chat plugin I can use with PEX?

    I tried iChat/HeroChat both were a nope.
    Same for ChatManager.

    mmorton89

    Question, what was a nope? They had the default <> like essentials chat?

    SnazySc

    But my question remains.

    >.< whats a nope? the sentence does not make sense.
    Do mean this?
    "I tried ichat and herochat, however both did not work to solve my issue."

    lol ok... I will rephrase that.

    What exactly was wrong with ichat, herochat and chatmanager. That was what I was going to suggest, you should use a better chat management plugin.

    The problem with iChat was I had another post awhile ago and everyone said iChat was incompatable with Pex.

    HeroChat just wouldnt work period, Couldnt even get the prefixes to show

    ChatManager just disabled itsself.

    Anyother chat plugin I can get that works?

    Well i use towny chat because well, i use towny lol. I don't use ichat obviously, but just reading the bukkitdev page on ichat it says it is supports pex.

    SnazySc dont know about ichat
    hero chat works 100% fine ( i recommend it)\
    chatmanager needs to be enable in the config file
    essentials chat works but if u want red text it would be
    owner: '&f[&4Owner&f] {DISPLAYNAME} &7: &c {MESSAGE}'

    The problem with essentials chat is, it defaults < at the beginning and > at the end of your chat formatting and he doesn't want that.

    edit - but yeah you should try hero chat again.

    thats cause he gets the <> from either fractions or he didnt delete the
    global chat format:
