Doing /sudo * c:<Chat Message> will cause a number of players to be flagged as spamming and/or banned (if enabled spam: true)

Observed Behavior

When using EssentialsX, running /sudo * c: will cause a number of players to be warned about their noise level, which is in the default configuration of GriefPrevention. They will either be told this message and/or banned, dependent on it being enabled in the configuration.

I have also noticed that the player is Minecraft banned, so /minecraft:pardon has to be executed, and not /unban or any plugin name before it such as /litebans:unban, which may cause confusion when it states "This player hasn't been banned." You probably just want to implement it to be /ban.

Expected Behavior

Not flagging those users as potentially spamming for the same message as the message is obviously the same, but shouldn't cause any issue as each user is saying the message themselves.

Reproduction steps

  1. /sudo * c:
  2. Watch the magic happen.

Stack trace or error log

No error - Intended behavior - But obviously not intentional.

What does that do, make everyone send a chat message?

May want to just disable antispam entirely then if you're doing stuff like that.

but shouldn't cause any issue as each user is saying the message themselves.

There could be the case where a spammer joins with multiple accounts, then spams the same message in chat amongst the multiple users.

Yes, this command in essentials forces everyone to say the same message.

but shouldn't cause any issue as each user is saying the message themselves.

You do make a valid point here though, so not a bug as per say, but an intentional feature.
