(1) What name do you go by:

(2) Your suggestion:
Change is needed, this is a proposed change and likely won't be implemented word for word, but can give Lexa some ideas.
Rename Bug report section into Bug & Exploit report section
Make this section section private for Hogwarts RP and Clone Wars RP
Make subcategories for the types of bugs as well, for example:
Hogwarts: General spell bug/exploit (wand rewrite addon bug) (name of spell must be included)
Hogwarts: Custom spell bug/exploit (wand rewrite addon bug) (name of spell must be included)
Hogwarts: Potions system bug/exploit
Hogwarts: General player model/hitbox bug/exploit
Hogwarts: Custom player model/hitbox bug/exploit
Hogwarts: SWEP bug/exploit
Hogwarts: Map bug/glitch
Hogwarts: (Other)
CWRP can devise their own categories
additionally, make it so only forum staff, server manager, and Guy can see the initial post from the player.
Forum staff and the server manager then work on ways to re-word the exploit with or without the help of the person reporting, so it is digestible/understandable for Guy to work on.
Forum staff or the server manager then repost its reworded contents under their own name in a section for server-specific staff to be made aware of.
Once a bug is fixed, leave some sort of acknowledgement on the topic indicating that something has occurred.
When the change is live, publish a changelog of the fixes. (This will require Guy to post some of the work he does, which will take some more effort- but by compiling lists of bugs for him to address, much of the work will be cut down for him and he won't have to hopscotch to different topics to decipher whether or not a bug still exists)
The change log can either be published by Guy himself, the server manager, or any one of the admins. The player can even post proof of Guy acknowledging the exploit and and fixing it in their original topic.
Essentially:
1. Someone posts bug/exploit
2. Forum staff/Server manager acknowledge the bug and ask any additional questions with the player about the issue so the bug is reworded into something agreeable
3. Forum staff/Server Manager post the reworded suggestion in another topic for all server staff to see
4. Guy accepts/works on the bug/exploit
5. Someone (staff) posts in the topic that the fix has been made
6. A dated/timestamped changelog is published
(3) What made you feel that this change was necessary or would make a great addition:
Guy does things in chunks, the way the bug section works now is that they are scattered all about like breadcrumbs and things he finds most important get done. If a developer who manages these servers does nothing but hotfix of things he finds important, things get done less efficiently.
Community and staff should be helping him by compiling lists of outstanding bugs for him to acknowledge and fix.
We want to empower staff, supers, and server admins to help Guy by categorizing these bugs into aforementioned subcategories so he can address the fixes sooner and more efficiently. He shouldn't have to snipe out the fixes, the staff should be helping him.
Lastly, the only way we know something is fixed right now is if someone talking with Guy informs the others.
This suggestion helps streamline the bug/exploit reporting section so that a changelog can be properly published and maintained.
Reason behind making it private:
There are some people who see that section and use the reports like a road map for their own benefit.
There are people getting punished for talking about the exploits in-game, while talking about it in the bug report section makes it see more eyes. If it's punishable in-game, then why is making it known on the forums still a thing?
Additionally, there's people who see others reporting some bug/exploit and think "Oh, they're the reason our ability to exploit is getting taken away, fuck them"
"Why not Halo?"
I don't know much about how Zubey works to assess whether or not this sort of section will be beneficial.
(4) List what you think (if any) could be possible negatives if your suggestion were to be added:
People posting the same bug multiple times
Possibly extra work for Guy to post that a change has been made.
Creates work for forum staff.
