No Chat Reports Mod (1.21.11, 1.20.6) – How to Disable Chat Reporting

No Chat Reports is a privacy-focused utility mod that strips cryptographic signatures from chat messages and disables the Player Chat Reporting system for Minecraft, available for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt mod loaders.

When Mojang introduced chat signing and the Player Chat Reporting system in Minecraft 1.19, it sparked one of the biggest controversies in the game's history. Every message you send in multiplayer is now cryptographically signed and tied directly to your Microsoft account, meaning other players can report your chat to Mojang — potentially resulting in a ban from all online play. For many players, this felt like an overreach into community-run servers that have managed their own moderation for over a decade. No Chat Reports was created by Aizistral to address exactly this concern, and with over 39 million downloads, it has become one of the most widely adopted privacy mods in Minecraft history. The mod works by removing the cryptographic signatures attached to your chat messages, making them untraceable and unreportable.

Key Features of No Chat Reports

• Cryptographic Signature Stripping — The core function of this mod removes the digital signatures that Mojang attaches to every chat message since 1.19. Without these signatures, your messages cannot be verified as coming from your account, which means they cannot be used as evidence in a chat report. This is the foundation of the mod's privacy protection.
• Player Chat Reporting Disabled — Starting from Minecraft 1.19.1, the mod fully disables the Player Chat Reporting feature. This means neither you nor other players on a protected server can file chat reports through the in-game system. Server communities that prefer self-moderation can maintain their independence from Mojang's enforcement.
• Flexible Client and Server Installation — No Chat Reports functions differently depending on where it is installed. On the client side alone, it prevents your account's public key from being sent to the server and strips signatures from outgoing messages. On the server side, it can convert all signed messages to unsigned system messages, protecting every player regardless of whether they have the mod installed. Installing on both sides provides the strongest level of protection.
• Configuration Files — The mod offers detailed configuration options that let you fine-tune its behavior to match your preferences. Server operators can customize how aggressively the mod strips signatures, while client users can adjust warning screens and fallback behavior. This flexibility ensures the mod works well across different server setups and policies.
• Server Player Protection — When installed server-side, No Chat Reports protects all connected players automatically. The server converts signed player messages into system messages before relaying them, which effectively removes the reporting capability for the entire server without requiring each player to install the mod individually. This is particularly valuable for server administrators who want to protect their community as a whole.
• Safe Server Status Indicators — The mod provides visual indicators that let you know whether the server you are connected to is fully protected against chat reporting. You can quickly check if the server supports unsigned messages, giving you confidence about your privacy status before you start chatting. This transparency helps players make informed decisions about where they play.
• Multi-Loader Support — No Chat Reports is available for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt, covering virtually every modded Minecraft setup. Whether you run a lightweight Fabric client or a heavily modded Forge server, the mod integrates without conflicts. This broad compatibility is a major reason for its massive adoption.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is No Chat Reports safe to use?

Yes — No Chat Reports is safe and does not violate Minecraft's terms of service. The mod simply removes cryptographic signatures from your chat messages. It has been downloaded over 39 million times and is open source under the WTFPL license, so anyone can audit the code on GitHub. The mod does not give you any unfair gameplay advantage or modify game mechanics.

Does No Chat Reports work on servers that enforce chat signing?

Partially — it depends on your Minecraft version. On 1.19.1 and 1.19.2, you will not be able to join a server with enforce-secure-profile enabled unless you agree to send signed messages through a warning screen. On 1.19.3 and later versions, you can still join these servers but will not be able to use chat or chat-related commands, though other commands still work normally.

Do I need to install No Chat Reports on both client and server?

No — installing on either side provides protection, but each configuration offers different levels of coverage. Client-only installation protects your own messages from being signed and reported. Server-only installation protects all players by converting signed messages to system messages. Installing on both sides provides the most comprehensive protection available.

Does No Chat Reports work with Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge?

Yes — No Chat Reports supports Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt mod loaders. Simply download the correct version that matches both your mod loader and Minecraft version. The mod has maintained multi-loader support since its initial release and continues to update for all platforms simultaneously.

Can I still get banned from Minecraft with No Chat Reports installed?

No Chat Reports significantly reduces the risk by making your messages unreportable, but it cannot guarantee complete protection in all scenarios. If a server enforces chat signing and you agree to send signed messages, those messages could still theoretically be reported. The mod's developer also notes that certain third-party exploits exist that can bypass reporting protections, though these are not integrated into No Chat Reports by design choice. For maximum protection, play on servers that also have the mod installed server-side.
