We need them. Even if it's something as simple as the option to play a ding when you get Convo'd, it's a dramatic QOL improvement for people who deal with lots of them every day.

Ideally we would have the ability to enable sounds per chat channel, or use the Word Filters functionality already in the game to cause a sound, but at this point I'd settle for being able to tab out without keeping the client visible on a second monitor to check for convos.

Or, you couldmtry paying attention to the blinking tabs. Not that difficult to do, as I find blinking tabs rather annoying.

Additionally, -1 for anything outside shield/armor/hull alarms that allows you to play the game while alt-tabbed out of it.

Imagine chat making sounds when your in Jita. I think the game would crash from it.
