- Consider adding a site setting for disabling/TL-gating the @all mention

In brief:
Yes, that would be great if possible. We struggle with some users bothering all others with this.
/greetz django
My ever-inventive users (whom I enabled chat for) today found that they could use @here or @all even if it was prohibited elsewhere. (They always find the darnedest things…)
If there could be a switch to disable that, that would be ideal, as would a switch for disabling Chat DMs / PMs (I had to manually add CSS rules to hide the buttons, which obviously won’t hold forever.)
Edit: Thank you for placing on correct topic, I somehow didn’t see this one, sorry.
That’s okay. There’s another one for the disabling of Personal Chat somewhere as well I’m trying to dig out. Bear with me…
Here it is Add Option to Disable User-User Chat
In the meantime I’m going to try to use Watched Words to block and censor the use of them. Which is another imperfect temporary solution because those can be bypassed (like the CSS hiding PMs) but as long as they don’t figure it out until a switch is added…
We now have a per-channel setting to disable @all
and @here
