I don't know why but I couldn't post this in Bug Reports so.... I guess I'll "suggest" this to be fixed? Idk

So there's this new prefix thing. You are able to define WHAT the prefix will be:

I set those options, they are not default

As I like the ability to have a little more customizable options this seems a bit flawed I guess? Correct me if I'm wrong; I feel as though I am missing something.

With the config options I have showed you, it displays the set prefix PLUS a pk prefix? Am I using the prefix option wrong? Is it supposed to be something like this?

I don't know if I'm the only one who thinks it's a bit deceiving to be able to have a set prefix and a custom one.... Maybe I just used it wrong in the first screenshot lol.

Nonono you misunderstood. The chat prefix is ProjectKorra. That itself has a prefix and a suffix, so you could do something of the sorts like <ProjectKorra> or [ProjectKorra] or (ProjectKorra), hope you get the point. You can't remove ProjectKorra from it.

Darn, that takes up a lot of space. I guess it doesn't matter that much. I think it'd look better if you could just do [PK] or something

So it's to make the brackets rather than the words? You should really define that somewhere...

The configuration options are for the "ProjectKorra" prefix itself, the prefix's prefix, and the prefix's suffix. As an example, a prefix of '[' and a suffix of '] ' will result in the branding prefix "[ProjectKorra] ". (Colors are to denote where specific elements go)

If you understand the basics of String concatenation in Java, a simpler way of showing this is
Code:
brandingPrefix = prefix + brandingPrefix + suffix;

Yes, I know this now.

It's okay. I'm an idiot. I don't see obvious things. I look for the big picture. But if I didn't get it, you should assume others wouldn't to.
It actually isn't obvious, most people would assume the prefix is the actual 'ProjectKorra' part.
