Disable chat?

Hi,

Hello, how are you, nice to meet you. What's going on? So, is there a way to disable the chat while playing multiplayer? I like to play versus games, but i hate people who type the chat full of "noob" "loser" "owned" messages. I admit that i'm not a pro player, but i like to play versus games and i don't give a f*ck if people think i'm a "noob". I play the game just for fun and not seriously, so i wouldn't like to see messages at all on my screen, so is it possible? Thank you.

Thanks for your reply even though you didn't offer me a solution. Anyway, i found a temporary solution, i put a post-it note on the corner of the screen :) . But i would still like to disable the chat if possible...

I don't really find fun getting people insulting you bc you aren't good enough for them.

sooner or later they will block him for "not listening" xd
chat: boomer goooo

it should be fun for everyone, you know? try to communicate back. not every insult is dead serious. pro players insult each other too, over a silly mistake/fail.

whenever you find nice people around your skill level, ask if its ok to add them.
