Aculeas's guide to reporting bugs!

[Aculeas]

You might be asking yourself right now "What is a bug?"

ANSWER: A bug is an error in the software program that causes unintentional, unexpected or incorrect results within said software. Bugs can be anything here are some examples:
-A monster or mob not taking any damage.
-Statistics not functioning properly; a weapon that is supposed to give +25 to hit gives -25 to hit instead.
-Textures missing from armor or gear.
-A UI (User Interface) Flaw that prevents a link or a button from working. Likewise, a screen opens when it shouldn't.
-A weapon is being used two-handed but you still have a shield equipped.
-Quest text being misleading or grammatically incorrect.

If you come across a malfunction in the game code follow these steps to properly report the bug:
-rush to the forums and search through the bug and technical issue section of the DL forums to see if your new found bug has not been previously reported.
-It never hurts to ask you friends or online developers whether or not they have encountered the same bug.
-Try to remember everything you did that lead up to the bug and take a screen shot of the reported bug if it's possible.

If the bug you found has already been reported by another player add to their thread and remember to be kind and make your post as helpful and detailed as possible.

Check back on the thread to be continuosly updated and remember the dev's do not always reply to every bug report but that doesn't mean that they are not handling the issue.

DO NOT EXPLOIT THE GAME THIS COULD GET YOU BANNED!
Last but not least if you come across a bug that could be considered an exploit it's very important that you do not "re-pro" once you've found it. An exploit is taking advantage of a bug in order to gain something that you wouldn't have otherwise or naturally have acquired. "Re-pro" or "reproducing" is the intentional recreation of a bug you have previously encountered in game.

And remember ladies and gentlemen have fun!

In general this should be kinda obvious to know how to report bugs and what bugs r (well we r on forums so we at least should know a few things lol), but nice addition to add exploiting problems.

Well I can hardly imagine to get banned if some vanity is bugged but if a weapon is somehow bugged and u abuse it, it might seriously lead to ban.

In the end it's about honesty.

With new games comes new players it is not always safe to "assume" people know what they are doing. Thus the creastion of this thread.
