Guild Wars 2

Apologize if has been suggested. A brief Google search didn’t show anything.

Right now we have the ability to toggle different types of chat filters on or off in different chat tabs. Recentlyish the expanded Combat chat options were added to filter on/off damage and healing from various sources. I’d like to see a similarly expanded tab for ‘Game Messages’.

[ ] Friend alerts
[ ] Loot messages
[ ] Story messages
[ ] Exp gain (Unless it’s located elsewhere)
[ ] Karma gain ( ^ )

Perhaps others? I’m not sure off hand what else is in that chat filter.

The reason for this is that with Game Messages on, the chat tab gets horrendously spammed when looting or crafting. With it off there’s no way to see when friends log on/off without checking the social panel constantly.

I used to have it turned on so I would know when friends logged on but gave up on it. Too many junk messages.

Sometimes it’s really nice to be able to filter out a couple of things if I’m tracking certain gains. I’m not interested in the loot I got from that zerg, I want to track my karma gains instead, etc.

More options is always nice.
