Do you see your message in console? (to open console press "~" key, next to "1" key above the "Tab" key)
If you see it, then probably one of these variable are zero:

Code:

cg_chatHeight
cg_chatTime

To check you can type in console:

Code:

cvarlist *chat*

(the * are wildcards so every variable name with the word "chat" in it will show up)

you can change them by just typing them in console and give them a other value.
like:

Code:

cg_chatHeight 8
cg_chatTime 12000

(these are there default values)
