League chat drives you crazy, but Team chat doesn't?

I haven't been on a League yet today, but I tend to see WAY more traffic in League than in Team.

I find the league sound more intrusive for some reason (maybe just new) and 24 people generate a lot more chatter than 8.

Very true. Teams you hardly ever get lots of chatter. Leagues you get up to 3x as many people, and normally around 10x as many people that think they are in charge. Now if you could make it so it only played the sound when the league or one of the other team leaders said something, then that whould be perfect IMHO.

I like this idea. That way you can be alerted to something potentially important, and can ignore all the side chatter.

I didn't even notice that there was a sound to League chat. In fact I thought I saw somebody mentioning that there should be sound to it. Is this new with the latest patch?

ahhhhgh, they added a beep? WHY?

I can't be the only one who separates out League and Team chat into its own tab. I'm assuming not, given how spammy league can get

Because lots and lots of players asked for it in both Beta and when in went Live.

Especially when you get Leaguemates in Lambda who aren't checking for the temp powers or anyone who's not clicking the Enter button to start the Trial. The beeps are to wake them up, like with Team Chat.

And for the most part, League Chat replaces Team Chat during an iTrial and Team Chat beeps.

As posted above, it can be disabled on your end. Good time for folks to learn about the ability to silence certain sounds because if this beep bugs you, I'm sure there are more sounds you'd like to silence (or replace with a more soothing sound). Make it so!

I wouldn't have a problem with the new League chat sound if it didn't sound like a digital rabbit dropping 'jelly beans'.

Yeah once you get started it's hard to stop. Doing this has enhanced my play experience quite a bit. Anything people spam at the markets...silenced. Well except Hasten, which I replaced with a quieter version of the same sound. It's well worth learning how to do.
