I was just wondering if it would be at all possible for text alerts? Cuz I don't always have internet access to look at my email, and I don't always look at my email even when I do have access, soooo I dunno. How complicated is it to code that btw?
 
Would you really want to link your phone number to this forum?
 
Sure just post your phone number in the thread so an admin can link it to your account.

We have no plans to implement direct email-to-SMS as this is not a frequently requested feature.

You're using Gmail. A workaround that would provide you with this functionality is using Gmail's forwarding feature and your carrier's email-to-SMS gateway to forward all new emails to text. This link shows you how to do this. You may be able to configure Gmail to forward only emails from Kiwi Farms. Text charges will apply if you use this feature.

You can. It would be under filters. You might have to use an email-to-SMS gateway of some sort, but it's fairly easy to forward mail only from one sender to another recipient.
