The STF website must be broken

[Uriah]

Reports are not being received by the Special Task Force. This is an obvious bug that needs addressing.

The only purpose of this post is to force you to read it. It is not a bug and I will not fill out the mock form. But you must read it and confirm it is not a bug. Thereby acknowledging someone has seen the post and proving either the site is broken or you're refusing to act on purpose.

If you don't fill it out it will be ingored 100%. And when it is ignored, it will be a failiure on your part, not theirs, because you didn't follow hte proceedure. This is made worse by you stating you're clearly aware of this proceedure and choosing to disregard it. And by result of this, it proves nothing. You also made this post knowing full well there is a proceedure and knowing full well it will be ignored, while somehow thinking that the inevitable ignorance of your thread for not following proceedure somehow proves that they aren't willing to fix bugs (or something).

If i make a game and you play it and find a bug and write a post like this, I will 100% ignore it, because it doesn't give me any useful information. How do you know reports aren't being recieved? Are you analyzing the network traffic from the form? Or is this just you assuming that it's the case because you've reported the same bot a million times, and not because you actually know it's not working correctly? You do not get to "gotcha" me when I don't fix a bug because you said there is one but give no information on how to fix it. I'm not going to go on a wild goose chase when someone says "there's a bug" without them telling me how they found it. Counting the number of bricks on a wall would be a more productive use of my time than trying to search for a bug that may or may not exist reported by someone who may or may not have actually found something and isn't telling me how or when they found it.

Your logic is flawed. They have a clearly spelled out proceedure, and ignorance of said proceedure results in the report not being processed. Whether or not anyone read it is irrelevant. No software development team could possibly act on your report as it contains no useful information other than a claim that something isn't working without any proof that it isn't working nor steps to reproduce said malfunction. Their sticking your useless report in the trash can is not proof of them refusing to act. They CANNOT act because your "report" gives them nothing to act on. And yet, when the ineviitably move this thread to "Not a bug report" (because it isn't), you will claim victory even though you had no intention of being or doing anything helpful to anyone else, you are only here in an attempt to "gotcha" someone for "ignoring" your non-bug-report.

And before you fling accusations of harassment, I'm asking legitimate questions and making legitimate observations that any normal person could or would make. If you treat the people around you (i.e. SE, me, anyone else) with contempt, said people are under no obligation to regard you any more highly. You aren't willing to treat them (or me, or anyone really) with respect, so why should they?

Side note: I filled out the form and found that the information in the form is indeed being sent to the server. Based on this, I can only conclude that there doesn't appear to be any such bug and you're filing a false report out of malice.

[Uriah]

You ain't too bright. They'll ignore it. I said that already. But someone must read every bug report. Even the fake ones. So they can't pretend like they don't know about it.

But thanks for the visibility bump.

[Alhanelem]

You ain't too bright. They'll ignore it.You clearly didn't read what I wrote, I know they will ignore it, because I would ignore it too. You didn't fill it out properly and according to their own proceedures, they SHOULD ignore it.

Visibillity bump? Nobody cares about this but you, and any such visibility becomes iirelevant once they move it to the Not a Bug Report forum and it becomes locked.

You're acting out of malice to "gotcha" SE for being forced to move this thread without finding your non-existent bug because you deliberately included no information for exactly that purpose, just so you can say "HA! they ignored it, that proves everything I said is true!"

As noted in edits above, I decided to go and try to find any malfunction in the form a nd I could not. All evidence available shows that it is working correctly. But I can't be completely sure, because you really didn't specify the exact problem, where it was, or how you made it happen- And this is either because you deliberately withheld this information or because you fabricated the bug.

If they ever bother to attempt lie and say they didn't know the proof will be written in stone. The staff read "the bug" report and confirmed "insufficient information". Then proceeded to ignore it.

Or they can try to delete it, but I take screenshots.

Report Read. Conclusion: There is not enough information provided. No action is possible.

This doesn't prove ANYTHING. The only thing it could possibly prove is that you are engaging in malicious behavior.

You can not reasonably or seriously expect any software development company to read the report you provided, and go on a wild goose chase to find a bug that may or may not exist. If you provide no information, your report isn't helpful to anyone and SHOULD be ignored. Period. Why you want to go "HA! THey're ignoring my useless report!," I really have no idea. But ignoring this report is the correct course of action and any competent software development studio would do so.

The shortest way to say this might be: You're trying to fault them somehow for taking the correct course of action. Nonsensical.

[Uriah]

Malicious or not I don't care. All I want is for it to get marked and moved. Thats proof enough.

Oh, so what you mean to say is you just want to waste 30 seconds of someone's time? Why didn't you just say so?

I mean, all this proves is that someone is doing their job as they're supposed to. You posted a meaningless thread in the bug report section, so their job is to move it to where it belongs. Congrats, you proved there is a forum moderator and that they are doing their job correctly.

There are no words....

[Uriah]

It proves that one person is and that the STF is not.

[Alhanelem]

It's not the STF's job to fix website bugs.

And since the forum operators move threads from here on a regular basis, your thread wasn't needed to prove that.

It's fine for you to fault the STF for not doing their job, but this isn't part of their job in the first place.

[Uriah]

Well since I can't annoy the STF into doing their jobs I'm going to shake a different branch until I annoy someone into doing something. Whatever it takes.

One day you will figure out that being annoying just for the sake of being annoying isn't likely to get you whatever it is you actually want.

Don't even try Alhanelem; "You can't fix stupid...." is a phrase that comes to mind when it comes to Uriah (and her many previous thread names that have been blocked and deleted by moderators), and clearly this is BEYOND stubbornly stupid and self-righteously thinking they are in the right, and THEN profess they know how wrong they are, and expect to be acknowledged. Luckily, I don't even need to know what she/he is replying, because they are blocked from my end. (She/he probably blocked me too so no worries.) Makes my reading of the forums SO much less annoying, spiteful rebuttal, condescending tones to people, and usually no help at all without him/her sounding as "DUH! Didn't you already know that?" attitude when OBVIOUSLY the person asking didn't and came here to ask.

Keep posting for us Alhanelem; Uriah will learn (actually won't) that being helpful with useful non-abusive tone will make her a better HELPFUL player in the community. As for me, I just wish she'd stop wasting precious electrons typing and posting.

[Alhanelem]

Yes... deep down I wish there was some way to reason with them, but if there is, I don't know what it is. Will just have to leave it up to Altana I guess.

You could just [REDACTED].

Hey don't tell him the secret, there is no better victory than rent free head space.

[Catmato]

Oh crap, my bad.
