Every bug tracker seems to do this, and if you submit it again yours will be closed as a duplicate.

I hate those bug trackers and forums. Like you have a problem that is quite difficult to explain. Then, after some time you finally stumbled upon a thread where someone else has the exact same issue… but there is NO solution and the thread was locked due to inactivty.

WHY!?

I find people are actually pretty good about this online, i come across a ton of 2 comment posts consisting of user asking for help with a problem answering themselves with the solution they found while waiting. It’s become better.

They forgot the “admin closed as not an issue” step

Or the even more frustrating OP reply “fixed thanx” with no details on how they fixed it leaving everyone else in the dark.
