Disabling chat for a player

Hello, I need to know how to disable chat for a player like the buycraft command /buy does.

 

Just remove the player from the recipients set at the player chat event.

 

its easy just insert this code in a listener

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onChat(PlayerChatEvent e)
{
    if(e.getPlayer().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("player's name")
    {
        e.setCancelled(true);
    }
}

 

Depends if you want the player to be unable to speak or unable to listen or both.

If you want the player to not see the chat, you do it like so :
public void onPlayerChat(PlayerChatEvent event)
{
[...]
event.getRecipients().remove(player);
}

If you want the player to be unable to chat, you do it like so :
public void onPlayerChat(PlayerChatEvent event)
{
if(event.getPlayer().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("name"))
event.setCancelled(true);
}
