Bug description

When i send a msg on my server, the message that gets sent to discord is not using the format i put on the config. As you can see, on the config i set this format: pms-to-discord: "[Privado] {sender-username} -> {receiver-username}: {message}"
But on discord, the message that gets sent is using the default format.
Example
Command: [21:22:48 INFO]: ivanterete issued server command: /msg TermoPanzer Hello
Discord message: [SocialSpy] ivanterete -> TermoPanzer: Hello

In adittion, i noticed that when a player with OP sends a msg, it doesnt get sent to the discord channel.

Steps to reproduce

Just send an msg to a player and check the discord channel

Expected behaviour

Well, the discord message should be like this: "[Privado] ivanterete -> TermoPanzer: Hello" because its the format I set on the config.

Actual behaviour

It sends the message with the default format.

    EDIT: One user on the discord said me that "pms-to-discord" is the format of the message that shows to a player that uses /msg from discord to server or inverse, not to the discord-channel, and that the discord-channel format is defined on the messages file, but then i tried editing "socialSpyPrefix", but it didnt changed the format of the message on discord, just the one on minecraft. In fact, i cant find any message on that file that contains [SocialSpy], and that is what i get on discord, so i dont know from where the hell does this message gets the format.
