Default Message Settings are STILL _Insane_

Every time a new patch for Hearts of Iron comes out I seem to be bothered by the same thing and file a new report...well, here it is again.

This happens in every patch for every paradox game to my knowledge, and it is really confusing to new players and aggravating for old ones.

The game's default message settings are confusing, strange, and utter nonsense.

Let me give a few examples:
  • "Another Nation Declares War on You" is, by default, set to NO MESSAGE
  • "Another Nation Successfully Coups You" is, by default, set to NO MESSAGE
  • "Another Nation Sends a Third Nation an Expeditionary Force" is, by default, set to ALWAYS POPUP


Furthermore, there are tons of dialogue options in the message settings menu left over from old games that are no longer used, and can sometimes be quite confusing. An example of this is "Effects of gifts and insults" in Hearts of Iron.

Would it take too long for a betazoid or developer to just go through the message settings and put them at a reasonable place, and remove the ones that don't have any function?
