How do I get rid of the state announcements?

[HairOfTheDog]

The state chit-chat new messages just started showing up again on my pings page... and I can't figure out how to get rid of it/them.

There's a link that says it's removing me from these notifications... but it doesn't.... they're still there!

in before the “are you logged in” posts start...

I go to my homepage and click on the flag. You have the option in your profile set up to include this on your home page. If there is a better I would like to know.

I was seeing messages from the Virginia “chat” which were dated October and November, 2008, earlier today.

I just came back on a few minuntes ago and the messages are no longer showing.

That happened to me this week too - strange - out of nowhere

[George Smiley]

Emigrate.

I used to have that problem when I lived in Florida. I moved to Missouri, and the problem cleared right up! So you should probably move.

go to

Account

Manage Blocks

Locale Message — Set to Disable

Hit Modify

Resume normal mode

I turned that block off by going into “Account”, then clicking on “manage blocks”, then next to “locale message” I changed the drop down menu to “disabled”. That made the message block go away.

LOL RabidBartender... I think I’ll try Norms idea first. :~)

[HairOfTheDog]

I think that worked - thank you! :~)

[JimRed]

My Jersey messages are from October, too. How come?

So you should probably move.

To Missouri! ;^)

I have no idea. Mine are gone now, though.

If he was NOT logged in he would not see them. So not being logged in works this time.

Thanks for making this thread. I was having the same thing happen, but didn’t know where to ask. They just started showing up.

[PLMerite]

Thank you! It was driving me nuts too.

The state announcements don’t bother me, but I would like to limit or eliminate the text of the post when I read the “latest posts” page. Some posts are about a mile long, requiring quite a bit of scrolling.

[Corin Stormhands]

That’s an easy one. On the blue bar on the lastest posts page change it from “text” to “headers.”

LOL - the solution is right in front of me. No wonder I couldn't see it.

Thanks!!
