Meathead Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 i cant tell you how many times ive laid down to go to sleep then suddenly had to get up to close the window on my pc that has the range in it due to that super annoying "plunk ... plunk" sound that plays whenever someone replies or reacts to a post of mine i want my range SILENT is there any possible way you can make that happen?

Meathead Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 is that where it comes from? i thought it was from replies to my posts. in fact, multiple times ive seen it happen exactly when the black box at the bottom of the screen tells you somebody replied. so either that was just pure luck or it comes from multiple places. i didnt even know sounds came from the sb so ill find it and shut it off, but i bet it doesnt stop all the sounds Quote One set of rules for all in The Beloved Community "The word racism is like ketchup.

Meathead Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 yep. exactly as i said, the sound is made when someone replies to a post of mine has anyone seen a toggle for that? if not i hope lit makes an effort to create one or just turn the sound off completely Quote One set of rules for all in The Beloved Community "The word racism is like ketchup.

The SB you can toggle off, I had thew same thing happen and just remember to close my browser on my tablet Quote “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes.

Meathead Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 wait are you saying the sb toggle does it for replies too? bc if you are thats wrong. i get an ugly ding when somebody replies to my post even with the sb toggle off if youre saying theres another setting to turn sound of on replies, where is it?

No, I meant the sound plays for the SB and when people post in a thread that you have open or when they quote or rep one of your posts Quote “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes.

Meathead Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 Yes it's the same sound oh, but it comes from a different place. I turned off the one for the SB, now I need to see if there is one for the replies or if Lit has to address it, if he feels like it Quote One set of rules for all in The Beloved Community "The word racism is like ketchup.

StraightJ Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I'm surprised that nobody has mocked the thread title with their usual suggestions that someone take big pharma drugs to solve the problem. ;) On a serious note, I've experienced similar things to Meat when I had my speakers turned up due to the volume on something else maybe being lower than usual, but I think I likely find the alerts more useful than not when the Range is otherwise slow and I do something else while waiting to be alerted of it showing signs of life.

Meathead Posted March 9, 2020 Author Share Posted March 9, 2020 my pc goes to sleep automatically. the sound wakes it up btw, turning your pc on/off is the harshest thing you can do to it electronically, including all the components like harddrives. if you want your pc and components to last a long time you set the power saving features to put them to sleep when they go idle Quote One set of rules for all in The Beloved Community "The word racism is like ketchup.
