I think you could wear an AO, animation override.

I've seen the head nodding even when play typing animation is off, usually the Resident isn't wearing a AO.

Like Knowl already said: You will need an AO for this that overrides the neck/head movement. Of course you can also use a real viewer like Firestorm that can disable those annoying animations, including the even more annoying animation when shouting or whispering. :matte-motes-smitten:

You can go to Advanced Menu > Debug Settings and paste in:

PlayTypingAnim - Set to FALSE

YawFromMousePosition - Set to 0.00 and PitchFromMousePosition - Set to 0.00

The last 2 will stop your head from following your cursor around the screen.

As the others have suggested there are ways to remove these animations.

Give those a try but be prepared when speaking to someone, (typing in chat) and having them walk away from you since they do not see your speaking animations and possibly think you are busy or you are ignoring them. I had to reset the animations for that exact reason. Or you could try speaking in smaller sentences so it appears in chat before they leave.

I don't really see how the animation could be bothersome since one is looking at the keyboard while typing but then again that could be just me since I am still a two, (some time three woo hoo) finger typist hahaha.
