I am running mirc 7.27 I checked the box to hide ping pong, but it still prints to my status window.

I am concerned that it will create lag. How to fix this. Tthx.

Hello, the option works, you are most likely running script causing this issue for you, type /remote off, which will disable all your scripts and see if you can reproduce (/remote on to enable your script back, in any case).
If you can still reproduce with remote off, can you perhaps make a screenshot or paste the actual message?

It is fixed. I went back into options, and un-ticked "Hide ping pong event". Rebooted and went back in and ticked it again. This time it took.

Thanks.
