are you clearing the string you send to $$anonymous$$sg() after you add it to the chat log? the call that method isn't in your post so hard to tell...

This is happening as you are using an array to store the newly sent messages, and adding the list to the chat box each time. Instead you should store it in a string, and just add this new string to the chatText.text. After this you can add the string to the array.

Example:

 chatText.text += "\n" + newMessageThatWasSent;
 //Then if we want a record of the messages in an array we add this new message to it.
 chatMessagesLog.Add(newMessageThatWasSent);

Also you don't need to use ToString() on a string.
