Here's the part where you'll get your bug thrown in the trash. If you can't be bothered to provide actual detail, then don't expect anyone else to waste their time trying to figure it out for you.

If I was looking at this, I would ask myself...
- Why does he mention LoV and MNK HUD elements specifically at the beginning, then go completely off the rails with no detail?
- What is getting reset? Everything? Some things? Always the same things?
- Does the reset problem only ever happen between logging in and out?

A screenshot of a UI element moving back to its default position would just be a screenshot of the default UI...? I don't think that would be useful.

The difference between "a design choice" and "a bug" is often merely a matter of perspective. That's why there's the phrase "it's not a bug, it's a feature!" With that said, if your JOB GAUGES are getting reset, I think that's clearly a bug. If it were just the standard menus like currency and shit, I could see that being a design choice, but your job gauges should definitely not be moving around. That's like having your hotbar location or your chatbox size/location reset.

Also, yes, a single screenshot would obviously show nothing. I figured the reader would have inferred that I meant a before/after picture (that would at least show the devs whether everything or just some things got reset). Obviously, a video would be truly ideal, but I don't know what sort of time frames we're talking about here. Obviously, nobody's going to want to sit through an hour video of some guy dicking around with his menus.

Now i'm starting to think you're a troll....

I will go back and edit it for further detail..... but this will be the last time. Its not very complicated. When you move x number of menu elements, for example the monk greased lightning hud element, to y desired location.... after doing so an unknown z amount of times the least used menu element then gets reset to the default location. Use the list of menu items that are subject to this issue.............

I'll make a fresh new list just for you! I'll include every movable menu and I'll try my best not to repeat a single one, just for you!

[massive list]

I'm still amazed that you actually want to relocate so many different menus.

It's likely the the programmers never thought someone would need to store so many of these settings. They probably set a generous limit that the average player will never come anywhere near overloading.

I feel like it could be one of those things that might not be fixable, at least for the effort required versus the number of players it would benefit.

It's unfortunate that it happens, but unless they can and do fix it, you might just have to accept that for now you can't relocate things like minigame UIs if you want to keep your more important items in the right places.

It would be better to not have a limit on how many UI element settings can be saved, but for now it exists - and you know it's causing your job gauges to reset. So it's up to you to prioritise which things you really care about the locations of.
