Subject: message after every game

Message:
What's with that annoying message thing? It's not an improvement for sure! Now each time a
game ends (even when you resign yourself) the yellow message thing keeps flashing until you
look at your messages...

Make it stop flashing after a while?

Make it an option if i do or do not want to receive rating changes message after each game?
Especially when you resign yourself, it's pretty annoying...

That's been there as long as I can remember.

I actually sometimes use it as a method to test my restraint. Since I know what the message is, and since I know I don't ever receive PM's normally, I try to see how long I can refrain from clicking the flashing little icon. It's harder than it seems!

If you resign yourself or accept a draw offer, there will be a "new" message but no flashing icon.

It wasn't like this before!
Not when you resign yourself at least.

How "new" is this? Perhaps I have not encountered it yet.

Flashing Message

Message:
It just started yesterday for all finished games. Not as nice I dare say.

new flashing message

Message:
Guess I'm in the minority, but I like it a lot - instant access to new rating and the tournament the game is in as well as the game itself.

Iron,

I don't think you are in the minority. Those who don't like it are the ones that are likely to speak out about it. It truly is a a small change. I would never have noticed until somebody else mentioned it.

The flash is not much different than before, and it has never bothered me.

It should be an option. If u play many many games it is just annoying...

I stop the flashing image by clicking the messages tab. Works every time.
