so that the coders can then filter all posts in a thread to only show reported bugs, it would really make life a lot easier in going through a thread and it's not a big modification yay
I would also like to request the same for feature requests but it doesn't have the same urgency as the bug one.
Exactly, while you have other things planned, in the meantime this site has outgrown the usuability of a stock forum. People being able to make posts and tick a tick such as "Potential Bug" in the same way they can tick "Show your signature" isn't going to hurt anyone of slow anything down in terms of what you want to present, however it will make life easier for coders.
