*  extractResponse()
*  Is used so that sending of linked messages is more readable by humans.  Ie: instead of sending a linked message as
*  GETDATA|50091bcd-d86d-3749-c8a2-055842b33484 
*  Context is added instead: COMMAND:GETDATA|PLAYERUUID:50091bcd-d86d-3749-c8a2-055842b33484
*  By adding a context to the messages, the programmer can understand whats going on when debugging
*  All this function does is strip off the text before the ":" char
