Shadeykins Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 GitHub requires a secondary account, and 90% of people won't be assed to make an additional github account just to report a bug they've witnessed/experienced. This is already a readily evident fact based off the sheer drop in bug reports as of late. There was nothing wrong with the forum-post topicky version, why'd it get changed in the first place?

Artorp Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 It's much easier to reference and categorize bugs on GitHub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkvA Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Yep. It's a convenience for us coders, who are responsible for fixing the bugs. So no, this won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadeykins Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 I understand the convenience, but like I said, you're going to have far, far less bugs reported seeing as GitHub requires a secondary account. Maybe remove that requirement, or sync it with existing forum accounts somehow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkvA Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 That's not possible unfortunately enough, as it isn't hosted by us, which means they use a separate database. And while we may see a reduction in the number of bug reports, in my opinion, if someone isn't willing to make an account to report a bug, I don't think it's worth putting in the effort to fixing the bug.
