Camelot Grab Bag

Once again, Mythic’s Sanya Thomas has posted up the Grab Bag Q&A on Camelot Herald, answering many of the questions asked of her this week. Here’s a taste:

Q: The known issues section of the Herald has changed. What’s up?

A: What’s up is that instead of it being a list compiled by hand, we’re moving to a more automated system. Every emailed bug, every appealed bug, every bug that isn’t really a bug but is causing confusion – they’re all going into a central database. People are assigned to go through it and verify that the entry is a bug. Once past that stage, it gets marked “Display On Herald” or “Do Not Display.” (It’s not totally done yet, which is why all you see at the moment is the old list, only clearer.)

Why not display them all on the Herald automatically? Because in my dreadfully humble opinion, the player base does not require step by step instructions on the occasional exploit, nor does the player community wish to see every spelling error we’ve made. There may also be several entries for what is essentially the same issue. But it is with great anticipation that we start to roll out the new system, and hopefully the list will be more comprehensive in the future.
