Post Bug Reporting
Forum needs an official section/subsection purely for the purpose of bug reporting. Hopefully with an active, dedicated moderator or two who will maintain a general list, and make sure people don't repeatedly post the same error.

Basically, it's an open forum; people can post and reply freely. There's a dedicated (bug reporting forum only) moderator, who updates a locked thread that contains a sentence description of the bug, and a link to the expanded topic. Thread creators post in a format; what their technical specifications are, what they were doing at the time of the bug, what happened, if there's any visual documentation, etc. Thread repliers post if (and only if) they've experienced the same bug, and follow a similar format to OP.

Moderator is also in charge of moving things that aren't bugs into Support/removing them entirely.

Old idea is old yep but never been implemented and the game is now at a level of progress such that reporting overlooked glitches in the engine is a great idea.

This is a better idea. Recommend it to Data, someone.

yes i completely agree.
that way data and the other devs(and other players of course) can just scroll through to figure out what they need to fix.(or at least have it brought to there attention)

Data is the only dev who will be fixing bugs.

Prom sprites and makes the backgrounds and other artwork, Numgun and Capnbubs just make content.

More like data will be able to set the status of a bug if it really is a bug etc and keep priorities easily.
