This addon is spamming "Found a new id" every second in chat in the AB brawl.

Hey funkydude,

Thanks for making this. Was super bummed when I learned DBM's PvP timers were gone.

I have a question ( / suggestion if it is not there):

How do you close a single timer if you don't want it? eg. the BG queue timer in the open world. Would be nice to have a way to force close anything you're not wanting on a case by case basis.

Thanks for your hard work!

No. You can disable queue bars if you want, dismissing individual bars will not be added.

I'm the author. I'm telling you, open the options and configure it.

If you don't see it, you're out of date, or you're not looking hard enough.

The latest release adds options to disable the queue status bars and configure the clickable bars.

Hi funkydude!

Very nice addon I have to say but I have a small question. Is there anyway I can turn off the "Queuetime" bar, I personally do not find a use of this and therefor feel no need to use it. Is there a way to not see the queuetimer?

Hi Funkydude,

Great addon and thank you.

One quick question. I seem to retain a single test bar that is perpetually counting down for an unnamed random battleground even when I'm not in a BG. I'm not in test mode and I've toggled the lock/unlock ( this is different than the green anchor graphic ). Is this a bug with me or something I'm missing in the options?

Hmmmm ... seems to have disappeared as of this morning. If it happens again, I'll post it. In the meanwhile, thanks again for the great addon. Cheers!

I see when it happens now ...

Looks like it appears as soon as I "queue" for a battleground. I can get rid of it by un-queueing, but it appears upon BG queue and while you wait.

Here is the SS:
