EA, stop turning my push notifications on after I turn them off.

I disabled the notifications via my phone settings instead of in-game. Haven't had any problems since.

On Android, go to Settings, Apps, Tapped Out, and uncheck "Show Notifications."

Dunno about iOS, but I'm sure someone can explain that process if that's what you're using.

I usually don't have this issue because my phone is on vibrate and my IPad is on silent, but it did happen to me last week when I mistakenly turned up my ringtone and notification sounds on. It went of in a doctors office. Awkward! :oops:

I didn't know it was this big of a problem though. It definitely needs to be looked at.

I noticed they added a couple of new mods yesterday but they didn't update the mods in the rules thread. It seems like they did that today.

Also I've never seen Bravewall get so mad and cuss before either. I remember when Bravewall gave me warnings when I did! :lol:

Odd things are happening here!

I've never had a problem with this until the latest event update. The alarm noise is very unnerving. And I was in a restroom by myself in the store yesterday and Homer says "push notificationsssss." I about had a heart attack. Thought a man had walked in! I hope they fix this. :roll:

I don't have the time to do it, so I passed the position to someone else.

I doubt I gave you any warnings about swears. You would have needed to be maliciously habitually swearing every other word for me to even raise an eyebrow. Of course I'm sure many people will remember mod actions I made in a very profound way, but for me... it was Tuesday. :P

That is exactly what I do. I've been unchecking that box for weeks now, and the Push notifications keep coming back. I could just turn of all my notifications, but that would turn off my email alerts too. I shouldn't have to do that.

I think it was because I used a symbol to bypass the filter. It wasn't anything bad, but rules are rules. :lol:

That makes sense though. Real life comes first. I just didn't expect it I suppose. :)

Well I seem to recall somebody spreading a lot of rumours about me being an abusive control freak, so if your surprised that I'd willingly give up control then I suppose you've heard those rumours. :wink:

Have you tried turning off notifications for the Google Play store too?

I have that one off as well. Pretty much all my notifications are off except gmail and hangouts. But I'm not having a problem, and while it's being reported frequently, it's also not widespread.

I've been doubting other reporters having both settings (in game and app settings) set to off, but I trust you as a competent (ex)mod should be able to handle that. Only other thing I could suggest is the old stand by, uninstall/reinstall? Then of course switch them back off and see if they take effect.

Really weird...
