Good work! I'll be migrating to this solution from the original and provide some feedback if needed.

[Fearts]

I suggest that it also changes the players name. That way if they decide not to type we can still tell if they talk over the mic.

Nice work on the remake.

Was going to suggest this as well. Up until about 2 weeks ago, I wasn't aware of the fact that player names can be force-changed.

If I'm going to go this route (changing the player's name), I'll probably end up removing the CCC dependency and just using Simple Chat Processor to colorize the tag in chat. Don't see why it couldn't be done.

Edit: This has been done.

Plugin updated to v1.1.0. Changelog:

• Removed optional Custom Chat Colors dependency
• Updated scammer tagging to rename the client
• Added optional Simple Chat Processor (Redux) dependecy for scammer tag coloring
• Added blocking of tags applied by Custom Chat Colors for tagged scammers

Great Plugin
I've got one question and one suggestion

QUESTION: Do those tags are going to replace existing tags created by 'custom chat color' example: player got tag [ADMIN] it will show up only [SCAMMER] or it will showup [ADMIN] [SCAMMER] ?

SUGGESTION:
Maybe add more steamrep tags like 'VALVE EMPLOYEE', 'TF2TP ADMIN', 'SOP TRUSTED SELLER', 'SR DONATOR' .....

[Horsedick]

My suggestion for a setting for this or the other old plugin is to set it to BAN any scammer from entering your servers vs tagging them, tagging them IMO is just pointless - best to keep the scum out of the servers. The more servers that do that the less places the scum have to try to scam others.

[Mr. Man]

It might also be a good idea to give us the ability to tag F2Ps

This plugin will replace CCC tags.

Not possible at the moment. The SteamRep API doesn't return that information.

Use Free2BeRenamed.
