Trial notifications are no better than SPAM.

Yes I know, it's a dead horse. But we should keep kicking that bloated horse until something is done about it. Thread after thread, /feedback after /feedback, until someone at ZoS swallows some pride and deals with it.

We all understand that ZoS wants to promote trials. We get it. But enough is enough. If you are in 5 large guilds like I am and many many other people are, it's nothing to get 20 or 30 of these notifications in one evening of play.

Isn't that SPAM? I mean really, what is the difference? If a gold farmer was nailing us with pop up notifications every 10 mins, then wouldn't there be an outcry for ZoS to deal with it? But it's ok if ZoS themselves are doing it?

The notifications are incredibly unpopular and unless I've missed something, ZoS stubbornly refuses to address or comment on all the negative feedback.

Yes, we all know there is an addon that blocks them. I am getting tired of updating countless addons that I have to rely upon for basic functions. Most of us are. Plus in light of the recent malicious addon that was mailing all the gold in your bag to a name in the coding, ZoS official statement was that they do not officially support addons anyways.

They are annoying.
Nobody wants them.
Nobody likes them.
Please remove them or give us an option to toggle them off.

How hard can it be?

/Rant off.

    inb4 "there's an addon for that" oh wait you already said it in your own post.

    I myself find the notifications annoying too.
    to be honest, I don't give 2 <bleep> if some random guildies I never talk to complete AA under how many minutes.

    I don't see why we shouldn't be able to toggle it off without an addon. by default.

    If I could toggle it off per guild I would love this. I would live to congratulate a fellow (social) guild member who completed a trip. But no offense, I don't care if anyone in my trade guilds completed them. Please make a toggle!

    Gold seller spam was less frequent and less obtrusive than Notification spam.
