New Report Function Idea

Would be pretty nice if we got a command like "/openreport" for a new report function but it'd also be sent to PRs.

The purpose of this would be: reporting glitches that you found (in case you found it some other way then another player abusing it), letting staff know when a hacker is in the area but you can't find him/click to report.

To sum it up, the command would be used for reporting stuff you know isn't right but doesn't fall on a certain player/can't manage to get the player.

The GUI that'd pop up when the command is run in the player's chat would look something like this
--

Report:

Information:
(Player would type the info here)
Send

It'd be alike other reports and all, just wouldn't have certain categories (unless that is something staff would want on it).

Let me know your thoughts!

What does the option to give feedback on the game have to do with reporting a glitch, catching a hacker, etc?

1) If there's a glitch, just report it to feedback.
2) If there's a hacker, just spam a PR.

1) Feedback can only be checked by higher-up's I'm sure, would be lots better if a PR was made aware of the glitch and could voice it to a higher up
2) They always tell you to report them (they want them points for doing the work and keeps all the reports in 1 area)

1) We could open it to lower level PRs.
2) Read bold

1) A PR shouldn't have access to that type of stuff
2) You went from "If there's a hacker spam a pr" to part of what I said. Not sure how that makes any sense, thanks for supporting ny idea?

1) Why not? He's making Era a better place.
2) If they want it in one area, why should we add a second report function, placing it in TWO areas?

1) Because they don't have dev skills which 99.99% of the feedback would require
2) The second report function would sent the reports to the same area.

1) Then why are we reporting glitches to PRs?
2) This would get messy, trust me.

1) Because they are the "Player Relations" and they're going to report the glitches to get fixed
2) How at all would it be messy? Doesn't take much scripting for the GUI and send the information entered inside of it to be sent to the same area as other reports.

1) But wouldn't it be smarter to directly report it to the developers instead of PRs?
2)Two different kinds of reports going to one direction, y'don't see?

Not to mention developers could actually reward you for reporting a bug

1) They're usually busy working on some other stuff, it's not like they're sitting around like ok what past work is bugged and needs fixed
2)It's same type of reports, bugs and all. Difference would literally be that you couldn't find the player, they'd still go there and look for them.

And to what Marg said, I've reported quite a few bugs recently and I haven't been rewarded.

1) That's true, but the PRs would report coding bugs (the one that caused the glitch) to the developers anyway, so what's the point of including PRs in this?
2)But that's why you can PM PRs.

Thats actually not a bad idea, but when it comes to adding the player's information it will become difficult for an admin to take the proper action. For example, if a player's nick is common like "unknown", it will become impossible to find that player, the player who is reporting cant see the graalid of the hacker to make it possible for an admin to take the proper action. Otherwise its a good idea.
