  Many, many times, I have sent messages to people, often to arrange matches etc, but get no reply. When I eventually do get hold of them, eg by starting a game when I see them green, I ask why they didn't reply to me, and the usual response is along the lines of:

  "Oh sorry, I didn't know you'd messaged me. I never look at my profile page. I just go straight to the main menu"

  So how about adding another box to the Main Menu page for Messages. It could sit nicely along side the current Menu, Friends, Invites bit.

  Or if anyone knows a better way of ensuring people know they have messages, do let me know please.

  Oh, and yes, I do know WGT sends out an email, but again, most people I know have switched these off, as you get overwhelmed with them.

  Thanks,

  Steve.

  Yes please. It would be useful for club owners as sometimes you want to contact a member and although you see them online you just can't get through to them as they only use the game client.

  This is the sad part of WGT that makes me scratch my head.  The communication amoung players should be better.  they have all the components already in place.
