No, it does not.

If you're not in a rush, like Vervain mentions, then swap actions. On mouse it should be Scroll Wheel (I might be thinking of DS3 binds) and I think on controller it is D-Pad. If you ARE in a hurry, you just cry. If you aren't using any online functions, switch the game into offline mode, and Player Messages will not appear.

Press left or right on your controllers dpad or whatever key is bound to it should you use keyboard and mouse.
Whenever you are close to an object which can be intracted with a prompt will appear.

The same goes for multiple objects close to you.
A prompt will appear again, this time giving you not only the option to interact with an (usually prioritized) object, but to also switch to the next available one, usually indicated by arrows left and right of the prompt box iirc.

Also make sure that the lever in question can be used already. Sometimes you need to explore the area a little further to be able to interact with it.

With my lofty intellect I discovered the solution: No need to use the lever.

Thanks all.

You can also quit to menu, reload, then interact with the lever. The message will require time to load back up, giving you plenty of time to interact before it does.

You can also boot up in offline mode to disable player messages.

An elevator situation?

Seriously, people that leave messages in front of ladders or levers are such ♥♥♥♥♥, and other people don't realize that by disparaging their messages they actually help them...

Idiots love doing that. Just keep slowly moving around it and you should get the lever option eventually.
