I'm talking about systems that join leagues to compete in various online door
games.

No, not at all <grin>.. BBBS is nice in that it does show you messages to 'you'
when you login.. but, in general if a message area just interests me, I just
read it now and then. I can see what areas have new messages.. I guess that's
pretty handy.
Take care,
Janis
