To quote our favorite ex-ZoS forum mod:

You know he still works for ZOS, right?

Next patch maint coming on the 19th.

Does anyone actually believe that ZOS will do something about this then?

I am getting ready to be pleasantly shocked... or resignedly having my expectations confirmed.

They might. Anything is possible.

If this was a simple mistake, it could have been out for the first patch. Since it was not, we have to assume that this was either intentional, or a major oversight that became intentional. Now that they are fixing it, and apparently spending some time doing it, I have to ask whether it is really worth it. Is this the direction they really want the game to go? Is this the sort of information that they want people to see about the game immediately when the log in? Does the benefit of this panel really meet the amount of trouble, angst, and development cost that it is causing?

Just remove the panel. It'll be OK.

Tbh find it incredibly lame how people complain about this with the same level of angst that you would if some great injustice were inflicted upon you

How many "great injustice"s would you like to see people debating on a game forum?

I think this thread can close. It's apparent the option is going to remain and addons can hide it so I think it's moot. One does have to remember to manually go to the reward list and claim it there though.
