I would be pissed if every time someone logged on or went offline I heard a chime. It would drive me insane.

Speaking of messages, is there a way to stay online, yet disable just the messages which say "Bobby is now online" and whatnot.

I mean, it's a total mood killer. An example would be the cutscene before the final fight in MGS4.

"LIIIIIIIIQUIIIIIID!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"SNAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

Billy_bob is now online.

LOL. Oh man, that's too true. Too true indeed...

And yes, you can turn off the notification messages. It's under System Settings, I believe. If it's not there, just look around, you'll find it.

Sometimes i have my PS3 on, and just leave it on the Xmb, and i'm not looking at the tv all the time. It'd be neat for a chime when a message pops up.

I'm sure they would let you have the noise on and off. I always check my inbox so that's not a problem for me, but I can see the usefulness in it.

In game XMB sports ticker or a weather ticker. It would be nice to catch the football scores without having to change the input source on my TV while im playing.
