    Occasionally, a player or multiple players can't see console chat, dynmap chat, or Minecraft Mobile Admin chat. The only chat they can see is in game chat from other players. It takes a server restart to fix it. Then it happens again with another player (or sometimes the same player).

    It is really hard to reproduce, because you don't know when it will happen, and it appears to be random.

    I'd suggest removing chat plugins such as SimpleCensor and/or Essentials and see if that fixes the issue.

    This started happening after I updated dynmap, essentials, and PEX. I went back to the previous version of essentials, and the issue was still there. Went back on PEX, and the issue hasn't happened yet.... I will give it more time. If PEX is the culprit, this is yet another reason I need to hurry up and switch.

    The issue is with Spout & PermissionsEx.
    We're having same issue, and I've submitted it both plugins.

    Try running the server with just Spout & PermissionsEx, and you'll be able to replicate this bug:
    When a server starts or /reloads, everyone can see console chat & certain plugin's colored messages.
    But once a player reconnects, he won't be able to see it anymore.
    Either pull Spout or PEX, and the bug will be resolved.

    Hmm, good to know. I will upgrade to the latest build of PEX and disable spout. I was only using spout for vanishnopacket. Thanks!
