I hate the idea of joining a recently joined party, in fact i hate the message system for a similar reason. Because, you can leave a conversation however it isn’t completely gone. It still exist, if you reopen the conversation later it’s still there and never completely gone.
Messages aren’t stored on a hdd, there stored on Sony servers and you can’t delete messages or past conversations all you can do is leave.
I recall the reason for not being able to delete messages is because people were being abused online and having a history helped with evidence.
If messages could be deleted there would be no proof and one persons word against the other.
I understand messages but the fact that I was on a voice chat party with someone staying there for what evidence, I mean nothing that was said is record, cuz the fact that u had a voice conversation. I still hate jt. I like all my notifications cleared and no history of nothing unless I want it saved, at least.
I’m with u on this one, I hate it! What’s the point! I hate the fact that u can’t delete it. It’s crazy how u can’t delete sh.. is like having that notification that never goes away. I HOPE THEY FIX THIS 🙄
