| Post subject: | Notification alerts are too slow |
Is there a way to increase the speed which notifications arrive? Just yesterday I was attacked and by the time I received the notification that someone had set off my krionus virus trap, he had already used a null fuse and disabled me. I checked my news feed just as he posted the "badge" message, however it was almost a whole minute before the red box pop up appeared. It seems notifications on the news feed are instantaneous but the red box pop ups are taking a LOT longer to appear then they should. It would really help if this could be fixed |

I'm pretty certain that the alert boxes appear when your shield or energy timer reaches 0:00 and restarts, although I would agree that they should appear sooner if possible. |

Yes, that is when they popup. Which can be especially aggravating for lower ranks who don't have maxed recharge times. Personally, I think the popup trigger should be polling the server at a max of every 10 seconds. Even that slowly you can get disabled while you stare at your screen but at least it would give you a fighting chance. Ideally though, since the news feed is updated practically instantaneously (even though they don't show until you refresh the news tab) the popups should be keyed to update at the same time. |

(the legion chat works the same way,... it updates every 30 seconds if you're not actively typing) anyway, i agree it needs to be a smaller window of time..... more like 10 seconds... and also make it check for alerts each time we send a chat msg too.. |
