Guildmate Trial Completion Notification

With the addition of trials, I've noticed that I now receive notifications when guildmates complete trials (I think only when they get decent times maybe).

The problem with this is many people are in trade guilds with 500+ members. I'm in a couple of these. I'm getting a lot of notifications that guildmates have completed trials.

Is there a way to turn this off? Ideally per guild (so I can leave it on for my main guild)? I've looked everywhere I can think of and can't find anything.

Thanks in advance!

Attention Zenimax: Stamina builds don't hold up to magicka builds, and this is causing most of your class imbalance. It makes melee weapons and bows weaker than staves and class abilities. It makes medium and heavy armor less desirable than light armor. Fix this imbalance, and you'll address most of your balance issues.

    Old thread but gonna /necro.

    Please let us turn these off (as the OP suggested, per guild). I'm really getting tired of hearing the notification sound popping up every 5-10 minutes for being in large guilds.

    I agree. I belong to three trading guilds where I know nobody, as they are just for trading, and I get constant notification spam about completed trials.

    Please Zenimax, allow us to set whether we want this sort of notification on a guild by guild basis, maybe an "allow notifications" button on the guild page, for each guild.

    I am in 1 guild for playing/social and 4 trade guilds of 500 members.
    I want to get the notifications for the guild I play with, it's great to see how my guildmates do and get notifications about it! One of my trade guilds is related to that guild and I do not mind the notifications for that guild either.
    But the constant notifications about people I don't know in the other 3 guilds is just tiresome, let ME decide which guilds I want to receive notifications about!

    Also while we are on the subject of social functions, please please for the love of all that is good, put a reply button on received mails. This is surely a basic function for mail communications.

    Guild by guild PvE & PvP notification when not in Cyrodil as well, if I'm in the area I want to know but if I'm PvE questing out of Cyrodil I dont care if x drops y or z picks up y etc...

    Another vote for providing an option to turn off the trial notifications. PLEASE - I love my guilds, but these are driving me insane. Or put them in another tab, separate from group invites and other player interactions like invites to trade - stuff I actually care about right now. That way, I could just ignore the other tab, unless I get curious.

    Although really, in their current form, the notifications are kinda' useless anyway. Even if I wanted to know, these messages don't tell me who completed the trial, or even which guild it was. So, I know that 4 people, out of a potential 2,500, in one of five possible guilds, completed a trial in a certain time. Lol, awesome.

    I'd also love a reply to mail function.

    I know you folks at Zenimax are busy pumping out new content, but there are plenty of us who aren't even in Craglorn yet. Please don't neglect the slower players.

    I just released an addon that disables raid score notifications. It's called RaidAway. It's up on esoui and Minion. It disables all of them right now. I'll be adding guild selection to it next so you can choose which guilds to receive notifications from.
