Text Chat cant be hidden

Summary

Setting Text Chat Scope to None wont disable text chat like its said in the tooltip. Moreover, it always appears on the screen when someone enters or leaves the game - which is very problematic on very active map because text chat is like 1/3 of screen width and we cant change its size, so players always have almost half of the screen covered with messages “Player Joined/Left the game”

Yeah either give us an option to disable the Player joined player left message or get rid of it… it spams way too much on servers with a lot of players joining and leaving.
