    Then you must not be playing with an active fleet. It's annoying as all, it's a Message of the Day not a Message every time you Zone (MetyZ). Large fleets who are trying to get information out end up spamming everyone worst then the energy credit spammers.

    It needs fixed and seems a sad oversight by QA.

    Yeah man, if you are in a big fleet then getting spammed by that [edited for bad word] MOTD it will get annoying. I have alot of members wanting me to simply remove the whole thing because it clocks up the whole chat...

    Ours has changed from a message of the day to a message of only when really important.

    I've removed our MOTD for this exact reason.

    Yeah, we are tempted to do that as well, but our fleet have news often that we need to spread to the fleet so we have to have it up.... now we shortened it quite a bit so it wouldnt be so darn anoying for our members.

    Our MotD has been severely shortened because of this. It says something like "Fleet window. Info tab. GO!"

    I just changed mine to link to our webforums.. all the info is there

    now my question has anyone figured out how to put line breaks into the fleet information page? I put them in, but my users just see a wall of text.

    Also find it really annoying...I took system chat out of my chat tab settings so that at least it wouldnt spam my chat logs.

    Yeah it would be nice if they set a timer on the MOTD so that it didn't display more often than once every 10-15 minutes or something (or if it changed). But having it pop up every time I zone is irritating, especially if I'm going on a long several-sector trip.
