This hook doesn't get called when a player talks anymore, but instead you can use Gamemode.OnPlayerChat. However, this does get called on other than player messages.
- MessageType can be; "none" for notify messages, or "joinleave" for Messages when a Player Joins/Leaves.
- User Chat is now handled by Gamemode.OnPlayerChat
- Return true to suppress the default messages.
