Is there an option to disable chat completely?

I just don't want to have the option to chat or receive messages such as GG in an awful game and so.

It may look very harsh but it gets me mad and I don“t need that. I just want to play and that's all...

I think the Chrome extension has the option to hide the chat. I myself haven't tried it though.

Nope. I don't want to add this feature in my extension in fact :)
This extension only allow you to mute some players, but not to hide the chat.

but you could try this one https://chromewebstore.google.com/detai ... haah?hl=fr

Ah, I mistook the "mute" function for the "hide chat" function.

There is not a built in way to turn off chat. However, the following css should do the trick if you put it under your Advanced profile:

Code: Select all

body.desktop_version {
  #chatbar,
  #chatwindowpreview_general {
    display: none;
  }
}

body.mobile_version {
  .chatwindowtype_table {
    display: none;
  }
}
