As to whether that makes a difference in getting a bug fixed, not that I've noticed. Unconfirmed bugs can and do get fixed, and there are plenty of confirmed bugs that languish for months or even years. > > As for voting for your own bug every day, that's not likely to do anything but annoy the developers. I take it that bugs that have a LOT of votes usually do get fixed as quickly as possible (unless it involves something unfixable like some of the game security systems out there) (and of course keeping in account fixing one bug could be a lot of work)?
