Just put the offenders on the ignore list.  :D

You can put system messages on a different tab.  :aok

You can put the system messages on a different window, then you lose the useful info such as hanger down, gun down, fields taken your own kills etc.  Absolutely the worst change they could make to the message system and no reason not to make it optional for the very few who think it is a good idea.

I use the Message Window Size key command (tilde) and separate widows for System messages and "other" messages, and have the key mapped to a controller button.  So, I can quickly expand the System messages to see object damage reports.  Not perfect, but works pretty well.

Exactly!  Not Perfect.  Previous system was perfect or at least close!  Even with the proposed work arounds nothing would be as good as either making the spam a separate option or if that is not possible (don't believe that for a second), eliminating it.

It's not a new feature. It's an old feature from when Aces High was seeing more growth.

You may not like it but you might see the point.
