I was wondering, how would I go about catching server messages like "Ringo is joining the Terrorist Force" and "John has the game" and preventing them from being displayed in chat at all?

Clients can choose to filter these messages.

Would you want to enforce this kind of filtering?

[SamuraiBarbi]

yes i would. it's mostly because the plugin i'm working on is going to involve players changing teams frequently, combined with the fact that i have specific messages that will be displayed by the plugin itself when important events related to changing teams are triggered. how can i enforce filtering of those messages to prevent them?

Hook player_team and return Plugin_Handled

Hook player_team pre ;)

Use EventHookMode_Pre, then return Plugin_Handled, as dalto said.

Thank all of you so much! That was exactly what I needed.
