Poll: Should a Bug Hunter Award be created?

roger_smith · 03-19-2017, 03:52 AM

Recently, @m0dem uncovered a strange bug (see https://sinister.ly/Thread-User-Profile-Bug?pid=753383)

I think a Bug Hunter Award should be created, and awarded to users who find strange or abnormal behavior, and report it. This could be a driver and incentive towards responsible disclosure of forum issues. If feasible, perhaps an NSP award as well, based on the scope of the bug found.

I like this, nice idea. I think an NSP-based incentive could also be implemented for people who find multiple bugs.

I totally agree on this. I definitly think there should be an award for this, though it should be clearly stated which bugs count. I mean there's also a bug when reporting something, though I don't really see that as a bug anymore since it's already been reported numerous times.

I 100% agree, as I have found small, very small bugs here.. Like image bugs, and star bugs. I would love the NSP thing!

As with all the above, I'm also In agreement.

The award would not only serve as an Incentive to the bug "finder", but also help keep this board updated, patched and secure. That Is, members will take that extra step to find bugs- knowing that an award will be given thereafter.
