Your avg. daily bonus collection per week?

I'm not suggesting that they force people to view the information, just adjust the popup so that it doesn't cover the search window or the daily prestige.  In other words, I'm adding my voice in agreement with the OP.

If we had the option for an adjustable pop out window for announcements it would solve half of this problem and four or five other ones I have (key word "I", I know most don't).  It would make life much easier if we could choose which announcements we wanted to be displayed and add a dismiss option to each announcement.  For instance you could turn on announcements for when adv resource queues finish, or building or tech queues are empty.  Then dismiss each announcement as you take care of the problem.  Basically a "Hey Stupid Window" to remind us of things we missed.

I've mentioned similar ideas in other threads and very few others seem to have a problem with this, but I'm still screaming into the wind hoping to make enough noise that it may get future consideration. 

I'm off topic, but I'm curious what the average "fill rate" of queues are for the average player?  Is it unusual for a player to try and stay well above 95% for adv resources and near 100% for Research and Construction?  It's difficult to have the basics in stock to set 10k queues all the time for non active prestige accounts.     

With that being said, I would agree with the "less information crowd" that it would probably be healthier to just let stuff sit idle and not worry about it, but that is easier said then done.

I think these two posts help prove the point that the current setup for showing advanced resources could be better.  Advanced resources, and keeping your queues full are a huge part of efficient Empire management.  

If you had an "arrow" to hide basic resources, would it still be good housekeeping to hide that information?   

My point (the same one I made with the compulsory friends list) is that having options to obtain more information in less clicks should be a goal of the interface, not finding interesting ways to hide that information.
