I want to start with saying that I am amazed that previous threads posts were removed but I will honestly try here at my best to not infringe any guidelines or t&c.
This post is about : How to remove the banners/adverts about politics in-game ? I play this game to relax and chill and not follow any politics or anything going on in the real world, therefore the BLM fullblackscreen with a politics message and the in-game lobby with the right side notification that is there without knowing how to remove I feel that my mood is affected, therefore my gaming experience is influenced by that (by a simple politics message).
Is there an option or settings to remove that from my screen and be fully immersed into the game without being forced to see that if I want to play the game? Is there somehow a way to prevent this from hapenning in the future?
I earlier on today posted something related about some threads being deleted in regards of this same matter (which they were maybe posted in a different wrong manner?), and recieved a warning so I don't want any trouble but the warning said to not bring any politics or religion into this but the message I see in game is about politics, isn't that against the guidelines?
I might receive a ban or this post removed but I simply try to understand how to remove in-game adverts/banners about politics ? Could anyone please help? Is it something I must do from Apex Legends in-game or from the client itself?
Solved! Go to Solution.

@Astropithecus_93 Extremely short answer? No there is no way of moving it without breaking the TOS.
I too will keep this short. You should not see the banner pop up more than once during a game play session unless you are crashing, getting errors or are abusing the exploit to disconnect/reconnect yourself from a game so you do not lose points in ranked.(which means it will constantly pop up on your screen). Every time you are killed and returned to the lobby then you should be "readying up" while looking/using your phone (as I do most of the time). Naturally everybody sees a specific part of the screen when we look at something, which is denoted in the following links:

So it is not your natural instincts looking at that particular banner in the bottom right corner, but you specifically. If it REALLY bothers you that much just play another game. I stand behind Respawn on this decision on a unified front.

@Astropithecus_93If you are so easily offended by a simple notification message that it disrupts your gameplay that much I suggest you go get your mental health checked because its as simple as closing it and you can continue playing the game, the little square in the corner dosnt hurt anything at all its not like its popping up after every single match because that would frustrate me too
the notifications are respawns only way to really communicate with players in game, its used for trailers, bundles, patch notes, events, and most recently that they support Black Lives Matter its not there for politics its there for communication

j@Astropithecus_93I dont really sugarcoat things I just speak what I feel lmao dont take it too personally, it shouldn’t really bother you that much every game has those boxes hell Im looking at one on fortnite right now... what was frustrating me on apex a couple weeks ago was that the missions were glitched so after every single match it had a pop up to finish the mission even after you finished it... something that constantly pops up and interferes with your gameplay is one thing but something that is just there isnt an issue

@DaleWWilson95Calling someone a racist is the insult from 5 years ago. It's been thrown around so much, its about as shocking as hearing someone say their name.
And the actual definition of racism has to do with thinking a specific race is superior. You obviously don't think all races are equal, so that makes you a hypocritical closet racist. (Aren't you shocked to your core because I used the word "racist"!??!?!?!?!? So scary, right?)
These brainless immature accusations only make you look like you don't have the ability to think for yourself.
