ICS Interaction Window Automatic Messages

[apueb008]

Is there any way to disable the automatic messages from the engine?

the messages I'm talking about are "Good Game", or the infamous, "Hello (player that joined) I only play against programs" messages.

Thanks

No

I doubt that, as I have played vs others that have it disabled...

They are using something else like PCA then.

Infamous? Infamous are those people that want to disable these auto-messages to cheat against human players.

Actually no. Your assumption is incorrect. Infamous to the point, because in my opinion, is just ANNOYING as all hell.

Also, is there Any way to change the default channel ICS joins?? ( A Clockwork Orange )

Thanks

I know is annoying, I hate it myself. If POGO will create a room called "Engine Room" or "Programs Room" or something similar, I will change the default room to that room and remove the auto-messages since they won't be necessary.But, until this happens (if ever), those auto messages are going to stay, this with the intention to give human players some sort of warning.

The pogo auto chess community is very small, just a handful of people. If YaYp will have the capability to join different rooms, these few little people will be scattered all over the place. The default room is a well known room for engine users, therefor that is the only room available and this will not change either in the near future.

You are right I jumped to conclusions very quickly, but by experience I know that most people that wants to remove the auto messages have only one intention: cheat.

I hope you understand this, and also hope you understand that when our work or part of it is classified as "infamous" I will be prompt to defend it and easily jump to conclusions.

Cheers,

If you find this ANNOYING, you could always use something else to autoplay.

Heres a link to another autochess program without the features you find annoying...
