What's the title of your suggestion?: Improve announcements of known issues, bugs and glitches reports
What's your suggestion?:
Add an extension to the https://roleplayhub.dev/schoolrp/ website or implement a channel within the RPH network for known issues, bugs and glitches currently affecting the player base if it's appropriate.
Recently, I have observed that players have their items eaten from doing /am. Or how the recent port over to the current Minecraft version broke inventory staking and deleted quite a few items for about a week.
Many of these player-upsetting experiences have happened throughout the server's lifetime. Like how just 2 years ago, the basketball courts were notorious for eating up players' inventory. Or 3 years ago when player clones plagued the server map when you stayed online for too long.
Implementing a channel in the RPH/SRP discord or forums to announce current known issues, bugs and glitches can reduce the number of recurring incidents. Right now, it feels like some of these bugs are only made known entirely through word of mouth or from someone asking for help. If possible, this channel could also provide a status to whether this bug is being fixed or not!
Here is an example of what a simple update message can look like:
-Performing /am with an item in your offhand has a possibility of removing the item in your inventory
-The School Planner is currently not working!
-Wardrobe is currently not working! (Fixed!)
-/Rewards is not working
Of course, there will be some scenarios where specific discovered bugs and glitches will not be announced such as item-duplication, server crashing exploits or issues a simple reboot would fix.
This is just a nice shower thought, better community outreach would be nice. I can see how it would be another task for the devs/mods/admins to do every day so I understand if it cannot be implemented!
How will this benefit the server and community?:
Better community outreach alongside the current bug reports channel
