from the chat. It stresses me out when randomly someone uses it. I'm a bit jumpy. I can always turn the sound off but I always forget the sound is on because it turns itself back on whenever i re-enter the chat. I don't enjoy hearing a person screaming, It's very unsettling especially at vulnerable times. Thanks.

I do not even get sound on my ipad in the chat room. I do not like that scream either.

I have not used the chat feature much but chat sounds should be subtle and comfortable to the ears; a scream/screech like sound on the chat programme sounds awful. Hope the admins are able to fix it.

I'm thinking the way you would do that is go to the sounds on your computer and select mute for the chat. At least that is how it seems to work for me on Windows 7. I didn't really think about doing that beforehand but it doesn't really matter because the sound was still bad and needed to be removed. I no longer feel like I have to mute the chat now.

Edit: no that just mutes my entire internet. Whatever.

If you go up to the settings in the top right hand corner of chat and select that, and then select options and then go to the sound tab you can turn off "auto play sound message" by un-checking it. Then you wont get the sounds when other people use the sounds in chat. You can also just turn off all sounds in chat by going to the settings and selecting "turn off sounds". That will turn off all sounds in chat. I hope this helps.
Thanks for this!

Screaming??? Yikes, that would freak me out. I didn't know this.....I haven't been in chat in YEARS so I know some things have changed. I don't remember any sounds, except a chime when someone entered the room. But it wasn't loud. WTF? Why need a scream sound?

I can't stand loud noises of any kind, be it from humans or machines.
