Make bug reports public

[MagnificentSpam]

The bug report forum was made private because of people commenting on bug reports. With the new website that would not be an issue.

When creating a bug report, it would be helpful to know wether that bug has already been reported or not. If it has, I can check if I can offer any additional information and maybe avoid spending time on the same report. Optionally you could also add a button to those reports to make a new related report for adding additional information.

If you are worried about people exploiting bugs they found on the report site, add an option for the reporter to mark the bug as critical which will make it private. If they refuse to use that option, they would probably tell other players about it anyway.

the reason they dont make it public is that there are people report the things everyone liked. like the chat filter. i would absolutly go insane to them.
and they would get very inpopulair. thats why its private.

it mayby could be possible to let the writer toggle between seeing it and not seeing

How do you know that's the reason?

Well, you pretty much listed the reason to why I think they're private now.

I don't know how well a "critical" mark will work, considering a lot of players would probably just make every report they have "critical" to have it taken care of sooner than others. There's also the opposite scenario, where a game breaking bug is public even though it should've been "critical".
Not gonna lie, it'd be great to know if something had been reported before, but I still report it just in case. I might even have more/better evidence. That way, I can be certain that the bug has been reported.

Maybe critical is the wrong word for it. It doesn't mean it's going to get handled quicker, only that it's not visible to others. Maybe call it private or exploitable instead.

Edit: You don't even have to give it a one word name. Just add a new question to the dialog asking "Can this bug be exploited to get an advantage?" and if they answer with yes make it private.

I feel like it should stay as it is because if a bug is reported and it can give an advantage, players could see it and use it while it lasts to get an unfair advantage. Also I think that it is safe to just report it anyway as it could help staff to get more evidence on a bug.

I doubt many people woukd find it worth their time to scroll through the long list of bugs Cubecraft will have open. If it is a problem include the "exploitable" option and have the moderators try to confirm bugs and select which ones should be public or not. Uncomfirmed bugs shouldn't be displayed publicaly to begin with. I'm completely for all bugs being public. Even if publicaly displayed bugs are exploited they'll just be fixed sooner.

Recently in an Eggwars game, I was defending my bed (as you do) until someone invisible suddenly attacked me. There name was iEnvyDaniel_. I don't know whether or not they were aware that they were invisible. But I am really confused and I don't know how he killed me being invisible.

I was playing in 1.15.2

The server is on 1.9 so there are many bugs on later versions, if only they had the money to update the server
