As a Roblox developer, it’s currently very hard to report any bugs if you’re not ranked over the DevForum Regular rank. At the moment you’re unable to report any bugs in the #bug-reports category without being a Regular+ on the DevForum adding onto this you’re unable to send any reports or messages to @Bug-Support as well without being ranked Regular+ from my experience, you will not receive a response when posting in @bug-files
I am aware Roblox is currently in the testing phase of a new Bug Reports Wizard option, although due to the many issues with the current system I was wondering if Roblox could address us more on how the Bug Reports Wizard can solve issues with the current bug reports system.
Main Questions
Will everyone be able to access the bug-reports system?
What is the process for a person to receive a response when reporting through the bug-reports system?
What is the process after a bug report has been submitted?
Might add more based on further questions others may have
I haven’t needed to DM the bug support group, so I don’t know how that works. You can definitely DM the group as a member.
View from member account:
The bug-files group is definitely not giving you a response though, the inbox is muted by default and the purpose of that group is only for sending sensitive files that only Roblox staff should see.
The post is talking more about the issues with the Bug-Reports system and questions regarding the brand new Bug-Reports system coming soon, rather than talking about why members should be able to post in the bug-reports category.
I don’t want to sound mean, however I’m not sure you can really say anything about any issues with the current system if you’ve never posted a bug report.
I tried doing this once and the mods just gave the finger and deleted my post without moving it. And it was a bug that was unreported! (Said bug was fixed later)
I’ve had the same bug for about 2 months now and I have tried everything, mods don’t reply to me when I message them, can’t report any bugs. It’s very tiring and i’ve had to turn on team create and have a friend publish the games for me.
The fact that we can’t report bugs without an arbitrary rank is really irritating.
I’ve just discovered another annoying bug that’s going to take me a couple of hours to get fixed unless I can report it, but of course I’m not ranked up, so I can’t report it.
Nice to know half of my decals are unusable until someone else notices the problem…
Besides, everyone knows the Roblox H1 has awful payouts and funky response times. If you want something to be patched ASAP, post it on the big red V forum.
Also, you can bump your messages to bug support, the inbox for it is handled on a most recent to oldest basis (so bumping a message every week or two is a good idea if it’s still happening)
