The program is designed to place messages directly under my cursor when I am busy or desperately clicking on something in the screen I think is important.

I know that this is the way of it since EU, but I'm tired of it. Put the damn things in the upper right corner and cascade down. Not in the middle of the view area. STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT!

If your not sure it is a problem, have the head designer go for a night drive with the lead programmer. Go on to the highway at high speed, and have the programmer in the passenger seat put paper messages on the windscreen in front of the driver at random but friequent intervals. For extra versimilitude, give the driver a loaded gun. Record the mean time to either use of the gun or an egaitarian crash of the vehicle. Repeat the experiment until a valid date set has been accumulated, or you run out of designers and programmers.

This is especially painful when in the middle of battle your ally posts several hundred troop referals on the screen.

First, make the troop offers optional, so I don't have the additional steps of returning or killing off the loaned armies.

Second, consolidate all troops offered to one message.

The computer ally is so insistant about this that at some point it is worth killing of the troops or the ally just to stop it. STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT!

Just a reminder, all game messages can be set to display in the game log or not at all.

Click as you would to save a game, but choose "options"

then choose "Message settings"

Make your changes for each message, when all done click ok

Problem resolved.
