How to disable XMPP notifications in Pidgin ?

Asked by Andrew Shmig aka SyFyKid on 2012-04-25

I am connected to vk.com via XMPP, and I am getting always notifications about people who just entered "online".... its very annoying to see each 10 seconds bottom panel to pop up with "XXXXX is online" message.
Searched "Preferences", but nothing found...

Really need help.
Thank you.

Uncheck the libnotify plugin and it won't be used.
