How to Submit a Bug Report

You can locate the link to the platform for bug reporting on the main website, http://www.legiondark.com/.
On the top of the website, there are four tabs. Click the second tab, named "Community". A drop-down menu will appear.
For bug reports pertaining to the server, please choose "Bug Reports (Server)".
For bug reports pertaining to the website, please choose "Bug Reports (Website)".


Additionally, you can also find these platforms here.
Bug Reports (Server)
Bug Reports (Website)

Registration

To submit a bug report, first you'll need to register an account with Github.


Start by going to http://www.github.com/.
At the top right-hand corner, there will be two options. Choose "Sign Up".

Submitting a Bug Report

To submit a bug report, go to the corresponding link, whether your issue is with the server or the website.
At the top of the webpage, there will be seven tabs. Choose "Issues". Issues.png


Once the page updates, on the righthand side, there will be a button that says "New Issue".

Choose a title that corresponds with the issue that you're having so that GMs can find your issue easily. Title.png

There will be a template pre-filled into the comment field. DO NOT DELETE THIS.
It will look like this:

    • Date & Time**:


    • FFXI Client Version (use `/ver`)**:


    • Server's Expected Client Version matches, yes/no? (use `$ecv`)**:


    • Character Name**:


    • Nation**:


    • Job(level)/Sub Job(level)**:


    • NPC or Monster or item Name**:


    • Zone name**:


    • Coordinates (use `$where`)**:


    • ffxiah.com link (for items issues only)**:


    • Multi-boxing? (multiple clients on same connection)**:


    • Steps To Reproduce / any other info**:



Please make sure to fill out every field in the bug report form, or make sure to write N/A if it does not pertain to your bug report.

Disclaimer: This does not apply to the website bug report. The bug reports pertaining to the website will use this template:

    • Bug Date & Time**:
    • Bug Name**:
    • Bug Page/Url**:
    • Bug Information**:
    • Steps To Reproduce The Bug**:
    • Additional Information**:

After you've finished a bug report, submit!

IF YOUR BUG REPORT DOES NOT HAVE THE TEMPLATE FORMAT, IT WILL BE CLOSED WITHOUT WARNING.
TO AVOID THIS, PLEASE MAKE SURE TO TAKE YOUR TIME AND GIVE US ALL THE INFORMATION!

Responding to a bug report

Please be aware that it may take GMs time to respond to a bug report. We may not be able to immediately fix your issue.
We ask that players do not be hostile towards GMs if they are unhappy, as GMs are doing their best. There are a lot of bugs and we can't always pay attention to every single one at the same time. It takes time to fix things.  :)

If players do become hostile, bug reports may be closed without warning.
