Users added to team line removed
In each general channel a new line gets created for all new users added to a team. Can this line be removed?
As an example I setup a team and get some posts ready for welcome messages and introductions, then when I add groups of people, after a few lines all my messages have pushed up and off the screen.
We have one specific team for all in the business and all the threads are getting lost as we add each department/individuals one by one.

With the introduction of the org-wide team this should really be fixed. The amount of user updates in the channel is enormous and all posts are pushed away.

Please fix this. Additionally all "system posts" should be able to be removed/hidden in order to have a clean unobstructed interface. The noise generated on a channel prevents users from being able to see the content on the channel that is important.

Inability to control this feature was raised as a risk during the Teams adoption programme. Considering that some teams could have 200 joiners daily, things need to be looked at from a slightly different angle - not having this level of management is just not good enough, and a potential showstopper for the project until addressed.

This is an absolute deal breaker for us.
Microsoft needs to understand the importance of office politics and how important it is for companies to be discrete about people leaving.

Owners need ability to remove all items from General Channel, including these automatic notifications. i require the option to turn off general posting of this sort. Almost a flat deal breaker. Offboarding and termination is only one strong example. This is an Administrative/logging workflow, and failure to hide this feature also inhibits productivity and clarity for management.
Please correct immediately. -

I understand why we have these automatic notifications (e.g. "X has added Y to the team"; "X changed channel name from Y to Z"; "X set this channel to be automatically shown") but the reality is that most of these things are generally administrative functions that the general user population don't really care about or potentially even need to know about (in the case of, say, a user being removed from the team under sensitive circumstances).
Additionally, just in general owners need the ability to remove any and all items (including the default "Welcome to the team! Here are some things to get going..." message). The main "Posts" tab - especially on the "General" channel - is often intended for announcements or similar messaging and needs to be carefully curated.

This sooooo needs fixing. It would also be very useful combined with the ability to pin certain content so everyone sees it rather than it scrolling up the screen.

Has this even been acknowledged? This is such a prominently bad experience, I don't understand the lack of traction.

The fact that this hasn't been fixed yet is just ridiculous. Microsoft, we need the ability to remove exiting employees silently. Currently, if we fully remove a user before their departure has been communicated to the company, it starts raising questions since everyone can see that they've been removed. This is a big problem for HR. Microsoft, PLEASE address this!!

can we please fix the "general posts" tab? It is not user friendly. I would like to be able to delete video's and declutter that page for my students.

Yes, this is an extremely bad user experience when joining a team/channel. Please hide by default and allow it to reviewed somewhere else, this isn't IRC circa 2000...

Yeah, this is unbearable. For such an extensive system, there's sooo many quality of life things missing I don't know where to start.

Please, fix this. My posts in general disappear due to all announcements about new members.

This is really *bad* in an org-wide Team...really messy and unnecessary.

This truly needs to be addressed - for the HR issues it presents and for the absolute clutter it creates in the General channel. This information should be logged somewhere but not in the main channel for each Team.

I sum up to the user voice.
Please let us add and remove users silently . -

What's the point in having a uservoice site when nobody is listening? This is not an enhancement, it is a bug fix - there is no reason for forcing these messages in a channel for the entire company to see.
