I am just tired of going to the effort to do the bugzilla thing and nobody following up (to vote), but rather just posting a message here. If nobody is going to actually vote for any bugs posted to bugzilla, but instead is just going to complain here, I am going to stop filing bugzilla bugs and just complain here too. Does this sound like a good plan to get the whole bugzilla thing off the ground? > First you removed why I wrote this message: my question.

Vote for bugs to get the attention of the responsible person! That is the whole point of the process (AFAIU). > I just find it weird that the keys only stop working > after some time. Num-lock seems to be the issue, but it is not the complete issue. HOME/END don't work in mutt in gnome-terminal 2.1 even with NUM-LOCK off. > Second, it seems that we can only vote for one bug at a time.

There cannot be only one bug at a time that any one person can vote for. That is just silly. > Additionally, the pages take far too long to load. You don't have to use the web-pages!

It takes votes (or somebody with privilleges) to move a problem from unconfirmed to confirmed. That is why people need to vote. > If the number of > votes creates a hierachy, I will create 100 accounts and vote for > my own reports. Well, yeah you could do that. Or everybody really interested in having the bugs that affect them just vote and the really bad bugs that affect the most people will bubble to the top and all other bugs will find their rightful place below. > Let's not start a war, ok? I am not trying to. I am trying to get people to give the process a chance. That will only happen if people actually try to use it. b. -- Brian J. Murrell
