I don't think you can disable the too many panda alerts. Too many is bad. It actually hurts your chances of catching something. I only run like 3 or 4 max. Changing the panda group to 'none' will keep it running until you turn it off. RID pandas turn off after like 30 tries or something.

 

the list populates itself. How do I.... I mean

There is honestly no way for me to answer this as-is. You need to figure out why the app is creating too many pandas in order to stop it. Common off the top of my head ideas:

1. You have a bunch of manually created pandas that QBC can't turn off, so it's just adding its own to the pile and then running over the reasonable limit
2. You've got requester watcher pandas for garbage SPAM HITs (penny junk) without proper throttling limits (taking it out of the RID Watcher group, no max cap limits, etc)
3. Your platform watcher parameters are too loose (ie, trying to accept everything instead of targeting work you actually want to do).

Just create a manual panda. Or take any existing panda and change the group dropdown selector to "None" or any grouping you yourself created. Any pandas created this way, if not managed by you, will cause an increase in the first problem though.

 

@CT

test? I think XF requires at least 3 characters to tag someone though
