Since the release of Minecraft 1.19.1, chat reporting was introduced; a new feature to help moderate multiplayer chats. While chat reporting helps keep server chats safe, being reported can result in suspension or permanent bans from all Minecraft servers and Realms.
Chat reporting was introduced in Minecraft 1.19.1, meaning it only applies to servers running 1.19.1 or higher. However, you can easily disable chat reporting through the use of mods and plugins.
