Hi Jose,

Yes that Jira text would be fine. Realm updates can be handled come upgrade time, there a various ways to do them.

Thanks,
Steve

So maybe, its a better option to add a restrictive permission like "msg.no.sendmessages" so that people only have to check that permission if they want to restrict that functionality to an specific role.
