than of random people in my guilds completing easy trials.

Agreed!!!!.....

Was thinking this last night, was going to look tonight to see if there was a way to turn off notification.

stefan.gustavsonb16_ESO

It would make some sense if the message at least mentioned which guild, and which people. Not being able to turn it off is a major design failure, though.

Easily one of the most irritating aspects of the game. Another thread on this yesterday or something... one guy said the funniest thing; 'We need the @name of whoever it was that came up with idea and notify him every time we get notified." Brilliant.

In the same thread someone else mentioned an add-on called BytheNine which allows you to block those notifications. So far, it seems to work beautifully for me.

I don't find it that big a deal myself, but maybe they should offer options to turn things like this off. /shrug

First time I used lol in a non sarcastic manner. I'm totally with you.

@kelly.medleyb14_ESO don't gives these guys ideas, at times they seem so clueless that it may just end up in game


BT9 seems to work most of the time in stopping the on screen part but since 1.5.x seems that the 'bang' noise still gets through about half the time...

Could not agree more. Guilds in this game do not mean the same as in other games. In many (if not most) cases, it's just a group of people that are together simply because they want to sell and/or buy something.
So the idea that we would care about one of our guildies finishing an achievement, is beyond logic or intellect. It's clear they had a complete rookie or similar, doing the UI. Like many have already said in other UI related threads, such an UI would not even get you a passing grade on any IT school, but it's good for a multi million dollar company. Go figure.

CapuchinSeven

Agree agree agree.

I don't care who has completed I don't care what in I don't care how long.

Thanks ESO!

We should find out the @name of the person who came up with the notification system and notify them whenever we get a notification.

It is probably the most pointless notification you can get, as it actually tells you nothing!
ZOS, I do hope the designer of this was in your first redundancies, however from some of the crap still creeping in, I think you promoted this idiot...

Rodario

Notifying us about guild mates completing a trial, but not mentioning which players exactly, or even from which guild kinda follows the same logic as sending us an "item sold" mail, but not mentioning what item, or even which guild store.

Probably, the same person/team is responsible for both of these.

@Zos this is how trial and sale notifications should look:

Notifications/Mails

Your Guild Mate(s) @name1 (,@name2, @name3,...) completed [Trial X] in [Y minutes]!

Congratulations

Your listing of [Amount X of Item Y] in [Guild Z]'s store has been sold!

Attached are your profits.

Interface Options:

[ ] Notify me about guild mates' accomplishments

Yes, but was it an actual person that did those and many other fabulous UI parts? Of was it an amoeba? Let's face it. The amount of thought that went into designing UI is how much I would expect a single cell organism to have.

Blud

Yes. I want to be able to turn off notifications for guild completions and also from AvA.

Mordria

I agree. This is perhaps the most annoying thing ever that's just stacking up with all the other little minor annoying things.

Zos, please remove this function. No one that I've ever talked to likes this and it's VERY annoying.

kelly.medleyb14_ESO

I loled @ these comments

MornaBaine

Seriously, I want the ability to turn off all these really useless notifications!

Love the title of this thread. LOL

That is called "minimalistic". It is the supposedly hip thing to do.

I have been using that add-on for quite a while and honestly it's great. Once in a while, notifications will sneak through if they pop up right as you login, however typically this blocks them. Oh how nice it is not to be spammed with notifications.

I could have sworn that's called "lazy".

Draxys

so much agree

Thechemicals

There is a way to do that i believe but it involves using the chat filter for guilds. May or may not work. Im total stalker material so i like to know exactly when guildies complete trials. Sometimes, i show up at the trial entrance to meet them. They are always so surprised

kewl

Hey, Paul Sage, yet another QoL issues that keeps reappearing in the forums. I've been sending a similar request via in game tools for a while now.

** SYSTEM MESSAGES **

The guild trial and scroll drop notifications are really annoying. Please give us an option to toggle them.

Let's recap repetitive QoL discussions that have appeared in the forums recently:

1. Ambiguous guild sale emails
2. Practice Dummies
3. Trial and Scroll notifications

Can you please address these issues?

manny254

There is an add-on that disables these notifications. I think it is called something like "By the nine notify."

Would you sniff it, if you would get a notification on it?

Yes, as I said "minimalist" as in it takes minimal effort to do.

clayandaudrey_ESO

As I said in the other thread there should be an auto grats toggle you can turn on. That way guild chat becomes flooded on every notification. Seems about on par with the actual notification.
