How to remove advertisements on a TF2 server

I have a problem, I recently got a ton of new addons for my TF2 Server, I never had this problem before, after I got those new plugins this started to happen: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=236646427 it kept on showing up, and i dont want people on my server to see contact@domain.com or www.domain.com all the time. If you know how to fix this, please tell me, Thank you!

Check your server files and make sure there's no script running that.

If you added this plugin[forums.alliedmods.net] you'd need to go into extended_advertisements.txt in the configs folder.

It really depends on the plugin.

Yeah, you're gonna have to tell us what plugins you got before anyone can tell you where to go.

I added this plugin https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=155705 this might have done the advertisements, but also TF2 Annotations might do it too, cause I have it added.

Same thing except instead of extended_advertisements.txt it's just advertisements.txt.

Yeah it would be advertisements. Go into the sourcemod folder and then into the configs folder and go edit advertisements.txt .

What's in the brackets for "1" and "2"
You can probably just set them to have no type or maybe set them so that their text is nothing.

"Advertisements"
{
"1"
{
"type" "M"
"text" "Next map is {SM_NEXTMAP} in {TIMELEFT} minutes."
"flags" "cft"
}
"2"
{
"type" "S"
"text" "{GREEN}Current {LIGHTGREEN}Map: {DEFAULT}{CURRENTMAP}"
"flags" "z"
}
"3"
{
"type" "T"
"text" "{ORANGE} Admins: friendly fire is {BOOL:MP_FRIENDLYFIRE}."
"flags" ""
}
}

Just delete out the entire column and repalce with the above.
