I appreciate everyone trying to help me with all the ways to "get around" these messages, unfortunately it's not what I was looking for, but rather I was hoping someone could remember the command I used so long ago to get them to stop on my two oldest characters.
I'm thinking that they removed the ability some time ago, cause I can't find it anywhere, and it looks like the community at large can't as well, hehe. I thought it might have been on a right click in the food/drink slots of your inventory, where you turn auto consume off or on, or possibly it might have been in a patch message a very long time ago, but again I'm not sure, as it was so very long ago, and I honestly can't remember exactly how I did it, hehe.
At least the reminders are not pestering me on my two older chars, since I did turn it off on them somehow in the distant past, so I know I'm not imagining it ever being a viable option. It's just on the more recent toons I'll have to use one of the way to "get around" the reminders, if it annoys me too much.
Thanks all.

I remember such a command in EQ1, but I don't recall there ever being such a command in EQ2. The only ways I've known of people getting rid of them is moving them to a different chat window.
Good lucking finding something that works for you though, and should you locate an actual command to turn them off, don't forget to share it on the forums =).
