this should works maybe unless i made a glareing error

local Send=SendChatMessage;
function SendChatMessage(msg,chan,...);
    chan=chan:upper();--    Convert to make checks easier (channel is case-insensitive)
    if chan=="SAY" then
 local pieces={strsplit("*",msg:gsub("%s*%*%s*","%*"))};
 
--      Iterate through pieces
        for i,j in ipairs(pieces) do
            if #j>0 then--  Don't do anything if string is empty
                if i%2>0 then-- Evaluates to 1 if say, 0 if emote
                   Send(j,chan);
				   
                else
