Who to contact to report an advantageous bug, and actually receive a response?

SickleCider · August 2019

I've been trying for about a month to get in contact with someone about a bug I unknowingly took advantage of, in the hopes that doing so will prevent me from being penalized. How does one go about this kind of thing? If you report a bug through support a discussion isn't opened, and there's no other suitable category for submitting a ticket.

Send me a message about it.

Then don’t tell anyone else!

Thank you.

You arent entitled to a response. If you are reporting a legitimate bug, thats all there is to it. You report it. They look into it and it goes up the ranks from there. If you happen to see it on a bug fix patch note then consider yourself a contributor to the resolution of said problem.

Outside of that, you need to turn your give a *** down to zero.

You admitted to using it accidentally and didn’t know it was there originally, right? I’d say just send the ticket telling them what you discovered, don’t use it again and consider it as no news is good news.
They probably won’t say to you personally if they fixed it, they might not even add it to the patch notes, but getting to keep your bounty after reporting the bug is probably something you can consider as a ‘thank you’.

Thanks, guys. I've been accused on more than one occasion of being an absolute pedant. Maybe I worry too much!
