I am already aware that I am far from the best player in Star Trek Online. I do not need to be reminded of that. I still have fun. I do not want to see anyone harassing me about it. I want to turn off the private messages in the chat window. Is that even possible?
The Social Menu, default letter O key, has a button for Privacy Settings. Here you can set yourself as visible to Friends Only and disable PMs from non-friends. This is also where you can adjust the Auto Teaming for Episodes.
That said, yeah, there are some vile people in certain zones and fleets. The Ignore button should still work, although the Report to GM might still be broken.
Call me "El," she/her only. I love my wife and I don't care who knows it!
On another note, if you have questions about the game or need some tips or guides to help you out.. please feel free to ask. You won't be mocked for asking for help.. not here at least. If you're fine the way you are, that's cool too.. just putting the offer out there in case you want it.
