Guild Wars 2

This is a response to the new addition of a sticky message from the mods. This message is telling us to report profession bugs in the forum bug section. I think this is not a good idea:

- it is very easy to just check our profession forum and see the bugs that we have reported. We have a thread for this that is very active and well maintained, once stickied it would be a click away.

- new elementalists can have a better access to this thread. They can learn a lot this way, and they do not create topics that are unnecessary.

- almost no player check the game bug forum. The community would be much less responsive

Wouldn’t it be easier just to sticky the thread we have here and then mirror it on the game bug forum?

We as a community have done a lot of work finding, collecting, and testing bugs with the class in one place. Last I checked, we are close to 95 different issues/bugs with the class.

Players do check the game bugs forum, and developers and other staff probably lurk the bugs subforum on a ratio of 10:1 to this one. The Elementalist forum does not see that type of active staff traffic right now where staff provides input or responses.

A stickied thread that mentions current bugs could possibly still be a valuable resource to new players or people new to the class.

For the moment, I am not updating our bug report thread and have requested it to be locked. I may PM Mr. Josh Davis about this idea to see what their team thinks.

Then they are probably right.
What I am asking for is at least a sticky on this page here that redirects (or best: mirrors) the game bug thread.
This is very important. I just remember the day when I opened this forum and I read about all the bugs (many more at that time). It felt very good to have all the information easily handed out to me, and it was very useful! From the bug thread I learned a lot of mechanics and tricks at that time. I would have never ventured on the game bug forum though, so in order to help all elementalists, especially the new ones, a game bug thread must be stickied here.
