When playing pogo games on facebook, is it possible to turn off the “challenge to friends” feature. If I want to issue a challenge, I will initiate it. It is tiresome to keep having to negate that page.
I’m afraid we cannot control that feature; it’s a built-in. Pogo has said (somewhere) that they will lessen that pop-up screen, but I haven’t seen a change yet, IMO.
No way to turn if off, though I have noticed that it does not pop up after every single game in some of the games, (but most of these it is still ever other game whidh is not a big improvement in my opinion). I only had one friend attached to that account and tried deleting them as a friend so that I had no friends to challenge available and it still pops up (LOL).
I find this feature totally annoying myself as well. I think Pogo should scale this down big time or give us an option to toggle it on and off. I use Mozilla Firefox and the “No Script” add-on and have found that between the two it helps cut down on how many times that annoying page shows up. Firefox shows a bar telling me it has prevented this page from automatically reloading giving me the option to allow the page to reload or just click the X to ignore the informational message and No script can be customized to only allow specific portions of a web page from functioning.
Granted it can be a PIA at times and there are some websites I totally trust that I default to IE for so I don’t have to wrangle with No Script over, but when it comes to annoying ads, redirects, and so much more, No Script is a fantastic tool if you learn how to use it effectively. It is a free add-on for Mozilla and turned this die-hard IE user of well over a decade to a Mozilla Thunderbird user over night single-handedly.
No, there is no way to turn it off.
