Live Tournaments - how to disable notifications in chat?
@rcu21 Can you send a screenshot of what you mean? I don't have the option of collapsing the notifications. I just tried.
@rcu21 Oh, haha! Wow...I had a "slow moment again". I never realized that option was there! Thanks for your help!
Problem solved!
@rcu21 I wasn't expecting such a fast response to my question. I'm pleasantly surprised I was able to get it resolved so quickly!
I am going to talk to the product team about if we should still show /announcements if you have event announcements turned off.
@jdcannon Thanks for looking into this for me. I initially had chosen the selection to have announcements only "turned off in game chat". However, it seems that option doesn't work because I was still getting notifications while trying to play a Bullet tournament in live chess. I found it quite distracting and slightly annoying.
I like to receive notifications, as it helps to see what's going on throughout the site. And I have watched GMs play live on Twitch. I just rather not receive these notifications when I'm busy playing in a tournament.
just hover over that and then click the down arrow that says collapse
When I play live tournaments, it can be quite distracting and somewhat annoying when I see announcements that titled players are streaming on Twitch.
I do like to watch these events and appreciate the notifications, but not when I'm playing in a live tournament.
In my settings, I have "event announcements" set to off in game chat (screenshot below). I thought this would mean that I would not receive these notifications in live chat? Maybe I'm mistaken.
STAFF:
I could be mistaken, but selecting the option I did in my settings, should essentially stop those notifications from happening in game chat at all. So not sure if this is a bug or not?
