Ah thats unfortunate. I was checking to see if there was a way to add other staff ranks to the admin chat tab. Thank you for letting me know. Its appreciated!

Hello, not really, the admin chat is for well... admins
Negativekins Dec 28, 2023 @ 8:57pm 
Hey there,

Just wanted to double check something because Im going crazy trying to find it and I know I must be just missing it, but where is the setting to add other ranks other then "admin" to be able to see the admin chat?

Is there a way to force all players to have the same chat ?
イアル  [author] Dec 15, 2023 @ 4:06pm 
With the latest Garry's Mod update some features of EasyChat may break, there is unfortunately little I can do as the Facepunch developers responsible for maintaining the game decided to simply remove features from the game for "security reasons".

@Katsu, never. It's quite important that DMs remains DMs, privacy is important too :)
Katsu Dec 15, 2023 @ 11:32am 
Can we log what players says in DM ? Its quite important !

Is there a command to disable "running an old version" notification?

I've read that these files just won't show up in the chat box after changing to a customized emoticon with a quantity of -1. Is there any size limit for this emoticon?
