At the end your chat.AddText you're closing off the arguements with a ')' and then you're putting steamid at the end, which is what's causing the error.
To fix it, simply change
[CODE]
chat.AddText( Color( 255, 0, 255 ), " [ ", Color( 48, 230, 200 ), " ImagineGaming", Color( 255, 0, 255 ), " ]", nickteamcolour1, name1, Color( 0, 183, 255 ), " has joined the server." ), steamid
[/CODE]
to
[CODE]
chat.AddText( Color( 255, 0, 255 ), " [ ", Color( 48, 230, 200 ), " ImagineGaming", Color( 255, 0, 255 ), " ]", nickteamcolour1, name1, Color( 0, 183, 255 ), " has joined the server." , steamid )
[/CODE]
edit: Also please ignore Kaillus, he's a dunce and has no idea what he's talking about
It's because you put "steamid" outside of the chat.AddText.
thanks guys

The usermessage data argument is not a player, so using the SteamID function is not going to work.
You either need to send the steamID as well, or it'd probably be easier just to write the player/entindex by itself and get the name/team color/steamID clientside.
Also you may want to look into using net messages instead.

Look at these: [url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26074909/tutoring/game_event_listeners.lua.html[/url]
I'm not sure when you're calling the user-message, but it may be the problem, or the chat.AddText may be trying to use SteamID as a table / Color.
Use the pattern:
chat.AddText( Color, String [, Color, String]* ); - * = 0-many
You're using Color, String, String right at the end. Additionally you're using ply as the network getter by using ReadString, so that may be the umsg getter, you may need to pass it as an additional string.
