ChatSentry
Update 1.0.9

7/29/20 Reupload note: Version reuploaded to fix a super small bug that stopped the config from updating with the new changes. If you updated to this version within the last 2 days make sure to switch out your jar with the latest one via the top right download button.

Additions

The config is now parsed to ensure the yml format is valid prior to attempting to load it. If it's not valid, you will be notified in-game and in console when reloading the plugin or when the plugin starts. This is to stop the Spigot from resetting the config file if the yml is ever invalid.
Any reload errors shown in the console now additionally show to the player who ran the reload command in-game. (excludes stacktrace due to it's size)
Added a new module setting to the spam blocker 'block-repeated-message-similarity-threshold'; If a players message isn't similar to one of the messages on the phrase-whitelist, this individual threshold value is now used instead of the same threshold value as the phrase whitelist similarity value.
New Antibot & Anticlient module - blocks various chat spam and join flooding techniques commomly utilized by bots and players using hacked clients. Composed of 3 submodules with their own settings that must be enabled as well in order to function.
Added submodule to antibot & anticlient module: Anti parrot - Blocks hacked clients that automatically "parrot" (copy) other players chat messages.
Added anti parrot notification and logging option (logging of this violation type is not recommended) under the admin notifer and core settings sections of the config. Anti parrot violations can be looked up with the violation type "anti-parrot-block".
Added submodule (and various submodule settings) to antibot & anticlient module: Anti join flood - Blocks more than a set amount of players joining every minute to prevent bot join flooding to lag & crash the server.
Updated /an info command output accordingly.
The block-chat-on-join-until-movement setting has now been moved under the Antibot & Anticlient module.
The block-chat-on-join-until-movement setting now blocks commands as well as messages until movement.
