New circles are treated as an "all user" activity - but no option for this being on/off

[putt1ck]

On NC13.02, Circles 0.13.6, new circles are being notified to all users but there is no Activity listed for this action. We have only

On events happening in a Circle you belong Any important event in a Circle you are moderating

• so (a) what setting controls the "circle has been created" notification and (b) shouldn't it be a separate activity option and (c) does it make sense to tell every user that a new circle has been created anyway?

I was reviewing a pull request (#192), because I had a serious trouble in a creation of circle in a database with almost 10 hundreds of users. It was created on record of actitivy for each user, then app Activity got "frozen", while waiting for result of query.

When I read this issue, I understood that it is the same cause. I created a option to disable notification for all seen users, then only current user is nofified by app Actitivy about creation of circle.

You can disable activity events for new created circles for all users completely with this command: occ config:app:set circles --value 0 creation_activity

But this is just a workaround.

Does the problem still exist?
