SetChatStyle
This member cannot be used in scripts, but is usable in the command bar and plugins.
For thread safety, this property is not safe to read in an unsynchronized thread.
This function sets whether BubbleChat and ClassicChat are being used, and tells TeamChat and Chat what to do using the ChatStyle enum. Since this item is protected, attempting to use it in a Script or LocalScript will cause an error.
This function is used internally when the chat mode is set by the game.
If you would like to create a custom chat system where you can define custom functions such as these, take a look at the tutorial here.

Setting a Player's Chat Style
