Is it possible to switch the notice off? I was shown the notice when going to thank someone for their answer here. I personally think we should encourage people to take time out to thank those that helped the, hence would prefer to switch it off on the forums I manage (tho understand if others want to keep it - hence hoping it is a configurable option).

Thanks for this question! I’ve found the setting and disabled it on my forum too:

### disable solved education message

Disable education message for solved topics.

Great - thanks!

Think a better description might be `Disable 'please do not reply' message for solved topics`
