ColorMe
ColorMe - Add color to player names
Version v3.8.1
Old forum link: Click!
Description
This plugin aims to modify the chat with colors, prefixes and suffixes.
You can set the color/prefix/suffix for individual players or create groups and add players to them.
There are several supported third-party plugins and other supported things like Spout or an economy system.
It's a rebirth of ColorMe and Prefixer from @Valrix

As a reminder I want to say that I worked very long on this and really appreciate a 'thank you' in form of a donation! (See details on the bottom)

Commands & Permissions
Only the bukkit permissions are supported! I highly recommend that you use a plugin for permissions like bPermissions!
If no permission system is found, all commands are for OPs only!
If you want to use ECONOMY, please use Vault!

Posted Feb 4, 2013The name colour doesn't stop before the closing name '>' thingy, and it just keeps going and colours my whole message. I fixed this once before, but I can't remember how I did it.
Do you know what may be causing it?

Posted Jan 24, 2013I was messing around with prefixes and I did: /prefix remove and it turned my whole name into red, I'm talking red as well. I turned legacyformat on and nothing happened, I also tried to delete my name off the player list and it remained the same.
I'm using version 1.4.7
My whole chat format is completely red and I can't change it.

Learn to write in proper sentences, I can't read these sentences.
FAQ is my answer - provide a better description of the problem, get a better answer!
@ThisUsernameIsMine
Currently not. But you can use iChat and ColorMe together!
ColorMe will auto-detect iChat and then you can replace your prefixes/suffxies in your iChat config (example: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/colorme/pages/use-in-other-chat-plugins/)

I can't and won't read your unformatted config text.
