When many messages frequently appear in the log window, some important messages may disappear too quickly.
To avoid that happening, you can filter out certain types of messages via Log Filters under the General tab of Log Window Settings in the Character Configuration menu. Select the tab you wish to edit and uncheck the box for any category to hide related messages.

There are various and detailed filter options available, allowing you to customize the log window precisely as you see fit. Start with hiding messages that you feel are particularly unnecessary and gradually adjust what to display to fit your preference.
