I would do as others suggestd in turning off the blinks. But what I would do is just squeeze the actual chat text box really thin and make the avatars/pictures of people in local larger. So you see the faces names of people in local but don't see any of the chat except a tiny sliver I guess

Put local on the right side, spanning top to bottom. Layer Overview UI on top of the chat part of Local. Use other UI's as desired to complete the blocking. Done. Have had it this way for years.

Is there a feature (aside from blocking everyone) to not have chat text appear? I am not really interested in speaking with people in local or alliance chats. It would be great to have the window open to see who is in local without having to block every nitwit who speaks.



I placed my local on the left side, like a vertical bar. If you shrink it horizontally as far it will go, then turn off all portraits, it will effectively become a list of players. The player list has priority over the text space in resizing to it effectively hides all text.

I think it is interesting that there are so many people here who have found a work around to this. Maybe CCP should introduce a new feature to remove/block all chats but just leave player list.

I know I would undock more if I didnt have to worry about people bothering me with annoying chats

yea, nothing like a wall of mindless text to upset or put you off. ^^^^^^
