IS there a way to remove some text from a string?
-- If I put Message = "Hello, how are you daddawd doing?")
Is it possible to remove a part from a string If I wanted to remove the "daddawd"
Message:GetFullName("daddawd"):Remove()
Is the best I have so far. Not working however

GetFullName() gets the full path of an instance, it doesn't work on strings.
To remove a part from a string you can use
string.find, string.sub, string.gsub, string.match, string.gmatch
The one i'd suggest the most is gsub.
string.gsub(STRING, PATTERN, REPLACE,(optional) Callback)
print(string.gsub("Hello, world!", "Hello", "Bye")) --> "Bye, world!"
These things are a bit hard to explain, so i suggest reading upon the Roblox Wiki (As i assume you're not aware there's a wiki when you attempt to call GetFullName on a string.)
