Bugs and problems topic - It's back...

[skate919]

Yes, this is very similar to the new ideas topic. What this is for is to cut down on spam, and to make it easier for the mods to answer your questions. I also figure that if the mods can't answer your question, other, more experienced, members will take care of your question for you and it will all be very easy to locate instead of waiting for pages to load. I just hope someone will put this topic to good use.

skate919: I really wish you'd quit making these kinds/sorts of topics. While the "thought" is good (and something I wish more people would do B4 they post)...

No offence, but the fact is that it doesn't make things easier to locate. Why? Well, if TMy was getting 10+ bugs a day (without much spamming in the topics), it might work, but the fact of the matter is that the few bugs that are reported are almost all just the same ones with spam all over them (but they're not 10 per day). And what we'd be doing (people that give non-spam answers) are looking into this topic and seeing maybe 1 or 2 bugs reported within days, and the rest would ALL be spam/discussion. Take the spam/discussion about the "bug" out and these topics would actually be useful.. but since there's just no way people won't spam non-stop in here... it won't be efficient.

It's best to have the actual "bug" at the top of topic and be able to skim/skip over the rest of the thread then look through the entire thing for "actual bugs".

Anyways... my "mutant power" of being able to rub people the wrong way is taking over me... :biggrin:

Ok, that makes sense.

TMy, you can lock this up.
