Bug Slaying 101.

Hey Spacers!

Some of you may have encountered me, I comment on your bugs from time to time asking for clarification on what you reported. I am currently on a mission to reorganize and merge as many bugs as possible and the list is daunting. We have successfully dropped below 2k reported bugs! However, many of those listed that could potentially be quick fixes can't easily be fixed due to many, MANY of the bugs reported simply not having any or enough information for us to successfully replicate this issues or bugs.

What you can do to help me while I'm on a campaign against the Bug Overlords is to go through your own personal bug list and check to see if they have any comments you haven't replied to and if they are helpful. HELP BUGS has been updated with guidelines and examples of what not to do when bug reporting.

For Starmourners who successfully go through and respond to comments, add comments expanding on the bug experienced, or who resolve bugs from their end that got fixed but were lost in the pile; shoot me a message and I will do my best to make sure to squash as many of those as I can. But that will be the order in which they'll be done.

IF/WHEN the Great Bug Overlords have been mostly squashed and culled to manageable numbers, there will be an update newspost.

No, you will not get anything for doing this except knowing that I'm not going to spawn a new planet from the water of my tears alone.

TLDR Task List
----------
1) Read HELP BUGS
2) Check your bugs
3) Resolve or expand on issues with your bugs
4) Message me for (temporary) bug priority queue

Also, thank you to everyone who has been so proactive in bugging issues and responding to bug comments.

Disclaimer: The Bug Overlords I'm talking about are not the Nath-el.
