Does your humidifier run all the time? If so it can indicate potential problems down the road. Generally  a  humidifier which runs often indicates high levels of moisture in the air. This is normally associated with excess moisture coming into the basement through the walls or floor.

Concrete and block walls and concrete floors can and do  wick up moisture. This moisture will work its way into your basement over time. Mold in the corners or along the bottom of the wall may show up.

Quite often clogged, broken, crushed or failing draintile will allow water to build up around the basement causing moisture issues. Given enough time, your walls can be damaged by swelling soil and hydrostatic pressure. Don't ignore a humidifier that runs all the time!
