I'm sitting through the release training for the newest version of the banks' core software. And in this particular presentation, the presenter listed under "Upgrade Considerations":

"When a warning pops up, you should READ IT."

Ah-hahaha!

Very funny.

Seriously, their warning messages are (a) too long and (b) too undifferentiated. Good warning messages should be a few words, and failing that, they should have a few key words in bold or red.

And even then, users won't read them. This is human nature. Saying "READ IT" will not change human nature.
