My friends over at Shadow Empire wanted a quick and easy chat implementation that works across BungeeCord and also utilises the many events in both systems to get a IRC relay that works and shows events that are also notable, not just messages, that can be relayed.
With the previous system there's a lot of fluff that happens in the IRC relay, and there's other things that won't be relayed. Death notices won't be relayed, and /me command output won't also be relayed to IRC. When switching servers you also get this issue where there's a little bit of extra lines than should be neccesary.

The new chat system will relay full colour, /me messages, and has nice useful features that add that little extra to the game such as pinging users, sounds on messages and more.
