Can turn them off but only by re-editting the files :p
Good program to use for systemmsg-e is L2Lige, you just tick on/off a box to display some text on-screen.
This is an old guide by me to use l2lige, its a little outdated and doesnt explain the newer parts of l2lige, but should be good enough to edit systemmsg-e :p
