# Description
\n**SimpleChatControl** is a versatile chat management plugin designed mainly for Spigot, but also works with Paper, and Purpur servers. It automatically detects and blocks repetitive messages (3 identical messages within 10 seconds), warning players to slow down and enforcing a 30-second cooldown. Server staff can mute players temporarily or permanently with `\/mute [time]`and `\/unmute `, while regular players gain access to privacy tools like `\/ignore ` (hide messages from specific users) and `\/silence` (toggle all chat visibility). The plugin also introduces secure private messaging with `\/tell` and `\/reply` commands, formatted for clarity. Messages are editable in `config.yml`.<\/p>\n

There are no external dependencies. Just drop the plugin into your plugins folder, start your server, and the default config will generate. _Java 17 or higher is required._<\/p>\n
