It appears that MudMaster has implemented a new chat command 249 that isn't documented as far as I can see, so I don't know what it does.

What I suggest you do, assuming you installed the chat plugin, is to modify it slightly.

Find these lines in it:



Function OnPluginChatMessage (id, message, sText)

  OnPluginChatMessage = vbTrue  ' process it

'
'  Example of rejecting a message:
'
'  if message = 26 then OnPluginChatMessage = vbFalse ' ignore pings
'

End Function



Modify it (with the internal notepad or some other text editor) to read:



Function OnPluginChatMessage (id, message, sText)

  OnPluginChatMessage = vbTrue  ' process it

'
'  Example of rejecting a message:
'
'  if message = 26 then OnPluginChatMessage = vbFalse ' ignore pings
'

if message = 249 then OnPluginChatMessage = vbFalse ' ignore message 249

End Function



This will cause the chat system to silently ignore message 249, whatever it does. :)
