Do we need BOFF pop ups?

I think that topic might have been discussed already, but is it really necessary for us to have BOFF pop ups? I get that they may be important for story progression, but once we're at end game (after a few days probably ;) ) it's just annoying that my officers shove themselves in my face constantly to tell me stuff I already know (STFs...), I don't want to know (we may warp to a sector you didn't order us to go) or I don't care about.

Wouldn't it be a viable option to just have a blinking "Officer" button at the sidebar if they want something instad of always blocking out our UI shortly before that tac cube blows up.

    I tend to agree they can be annoying at times, but to me it's not overwhelming yet!!!

    i support this because of the pop-ups in running missions breaking cloaks f.e.. this is really annoying.
    though i guess they stated a while ago they don't want to change this :(...

    Yeah highly agree here, why would a mission hail from your own officer or anyone for that matter cause you to need disengage your cloak?

    I like the Boff dialouge that pops up occassionally as it adds a bit of personalized substance to the game.
    If anything they need to just make it a toggle option that one can turn off, if desired.

    As to the cloak bug, its like herpes. Evidently it never truely goes away.
