Block user from setting Status Message

We have students that are using teams and are setting inappropriate status messages. We need a way to prevent them from setting this message. What options do we have?

  • I guess you cannot do this at the moment. I was searching for it to, but found an user voice for it:

    https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/39788161-prevent-users-from-changing-the-status-manually

    This user voice is about the status, not the actual message, but that does have a connection with each other.

        MelWade Thanks for sharing. So there is no other option to wait until this will be implemented.
