stevepsheehan: Unfortunately, a lot of players only ever go direct to the Game Client, and not to any other page on WGT,
That's a pretty big statement and probably and hopefully not even close to true .
I'm sure we all do that at times . Hard to imagine not ever going to " any other page on WGT .
Unfortunately, I can assure you that in my experience, it's only too true.
I've written in these forums several times about this, and have asked for a "flag" to say you have messages, being shown on the game client. Hopefully, with the "improved messaging system" being in the pipeline, this problem will be addressed.
SO many times (in my old CC) I've failed to get messages to CC members answered, and when I eventually do get hold of them, usually via a game invite, I get told something along the lines of "oh no, I never look at my profile page, and didn't know I had any messages"
