Meetings - participants that declined are still being notified of meeting chat messages
POV: Nearly 3 years later and it's still happening....did I miss an update to stop this? ChrisWebbTech
No. It is still a problem; only MS pulled an IBM. It was declared a feature.
The problem is a Teams Channel was named as a participant so anyone that is a member of the Channel continues to get the chat / notices. Technically, it is considered User Error. The Channel should not be a participant of the meeting. And the only one that can remove the Channel is the organizer of the meeting, who wanted the channel to participate.
Q: How many IBM engineers does it take to change a light bulb?
A: None. They change the definition of darkness and issue it as an upgrade.
- Amazing. Thank you for the info!
- I've thought about this a bit... workarounds-wise but haven't tested.
So if it's a large format meeting, like a town hall with all staff- the meeting chat could be disabled when it is set up, in the meeting options and the Q&A app could be used.
What a joke.... it is so frustrating to hear this continues. Thank you for the update Ray_Watters
