More than sure this has been suggested numerous times, but i literally see no point in the spamming global announcements of someone achieving a certain refine level, or who gets what from the Pyramid. When in all honesty all it does it spam the players screen with pointless announcements that i am sure NO ONE cares about. Even if you don't remove it, at least give players the option to disable it.

I don't agree with the removal of broadcast because it's useful and you can have fun with your friends. But i do agree with the option to disable it for ourselves.

I literally fail to see how its "useful". There is nothing useful about an announcement of (Insert name) Obtained (Item name) (x amount), or the message of someone getting a piece of equipment to (insert level). Only thing i can see it being "Good for" is people saying congratulations, which i have yet to see even once in a public chat, unless people do it via /Whisper. but again, if people want it. Cool, keep it. But at least give us, the people that dislike it, the option to disable the unimportant announcements.

I believe the announcements are pretty much act like commercials.

The purpose is to encourage people to do something similar.

Like when you see a lot of people suddenly get Ultra Large Bag, or refining a lot of gears without failing.

You might think that it's easy to obtain them, and then decided to try it yourself

Hopefully, you'll buy Phantom Stone / Infinium from Kafra Shop.

 

So, that's completely intentional. And... Obviously was designed for LoTS

Where Phantom Stone & Infinium are exclusive items from Kafra Shop

 

Currently, it's so easy to get Phantom Stone & Infinium

So you'll see announcements more often than intended.

So, it doesn't bother me that much.

 

But sure, New Option to disable some things are always a good thing.

(Please add an option to disable Weapon's Aura while we're at it)

It can be helpful/useful for hack/bug preventing as well. The announce is for important things, and you can see if someone is repeating it constantly without ever fail or getting the same prize from pyramid in sequence or something like that. It helps to investigate/report if it really happens.
