Self-explanatory; multiplayer in-game chat is not displayed on intermission screens. Chat sounds still play, and messages can be seen in the console, but won't show on screen.
Noticed this for a long time during multiplayer testing of my own IWAD, but I just checked to make sure it was a problem in Doom 2 as well.

Do you have a custom ZScript HUD that overrides ProcessNotify?

The message display is disabled on these screens. No matter what you do, someone complains. It once was on, someone didn't find it was right, it was disabled and now this...
