Mag helmet bp. Only 2-3 minutes left. Only found out from the Nexus app. Why do we have this app? Dammit... I know I would have missed it, but knowing beforehand is insult to injury..

This is exactly what's wrong with the alerts system- you know you missed things.

 

 

I always have the same thing to say on alerts, so here's all the other threads that share similar views. tl;dr: alerts system is flawed (as a method of content distribution) and needs changing. DE currently appear to be looking at alerts and ways to improve them.

(this is a quote from DE rebecca in the may 19th hot feedback thread)

There has been suggestions of ways to improve the alerts (adding a token system, generating Alerts based on time logged in, etc), and these are being seen.

Don't run it when you're not home (or in a place you can do something about it), and no I'm not saying it to be sarcastic or mean, I purposely turn off the warframe alert apps when I know I'm not in a position to do anything about it because that way I'm not disappointed.
