And you want to work within a team in that way? BH members are, as this announcement remember us, simply players like you and me and it's pretty obvious that we can't know everything in details because our character will be more a miner than a fighter etc. Saying that you should be a BH because you have more knowledge than another BH is another element which may prove that you are not apt to join that team, they are looking for teamwork and fun, not competition.
Ok you were refused because they considered that you are too young to join them, try to prove them that you have the skills to do the work, explaining the things you have ever done: mining/mission running/trading/pvp'ing etc... Telling that you have helped other players is another good point: you may be CEO/trainer of a corporation and you had the task to train new members
It wasn't meant to sound like i was saying im better and that's why i should be a BH. What i was trying to get at is i was told i didn't know enough about eve to be one. Something as easy as to fly a ship with rigs fitted. You must have the skills for that ship and the rigs and the guy fought with a few people on this for a while until he was told your a BH try it and see. Soon after he shut up. As for telling them things about me playing. I have if u look im the ceo and founder of my corp. the thing that brough the rig thing up was a new guy asked can u fly a ship with rigs fitted u dont have the skill for? I said yes. Then this BH said no ur wrong u cant u must have the skills for the rigs also. The new guy then said well forget that crap. So by getting wrong info it could have turned him off to eve. What the BH should have done when one person said yes u can to he was saying no to. As a BH he should have checked it out not set there and fought with everyone on it that was saying yes. All that done was make it look like BH don't know what they are doing. Its like in a corp if u have 1 guy going around getting killed all the time does it make ur corp look
A:) like great PVPers B:) easy kills C:) Noobs with more isk then brains D:) B & C
Even tho the rest of the corp is great pvpers 1 guy can make the whole corp look like noobs. Same thing here. They are looking for people that know about eve. Now im not saying i know everything about eve, but when u get told sorry u don't know enough at nearly 2yrs old in game and this less then 6mo old is to know more about it yet gives out wrong info and doesn't check it to make sure he/she is right or wrong that's messed up imo. How can u BH if u don't know much about the game and how it plays |

Originally by: David Kaos I have played eve for nearly 2yrs applied twice both times was told not enough exp. Yet i have talked to a few BH people they have played eve less and know less then i do on thing. Like if a ship has rigs fitted on it a BH said to fly that ship you must have the skills not only for that ship but the rigs fitted to it. That is wrong. Yet people like this are allowed to be BH and ones like me and i'm sure many others are told sorry. You don't have enough exp to do this and don't know enough about the game to do this job. just because i have no one to list that i have done this before doesn't mean i don't have the know how to do it. I have found more then a few bugs but since i have been told twice i don't know what i'm doing i wont report them. After all why should i take the time to report something i have been told i'm not good enough to do? Let the Ones that think they know how some things are to work find these bugs i have found. Just because u have had a job bug hunting for someone else doesn't mean u know what your doing and just because u don't have someone to list doesn't mean u don't know what your doing. Also if no one will give u a chance to get the exp how are u to get the exp u need to do this? Now i realy dont think a ccp worker will reply to this but if he/she does i would to a point be shocked.
Have a nice safe flight David Kaos
You were rejected because it is hard as **** to read what you write.
Learn some communication skills, then try to reapply to a job built entirely around sending messages back to the dev team.

Originally by: Countessa D'Marko Do I get bonus points for noticing the "Starship Troopers" reference in the thread title - or is it something that I would know about if I spent more time in GD ?
The only good bug, is a dead bug.
Thats clever. What if no one mentioned Starship Troopers, You would not have got to say that clever and very relevant 'good bug, dead bug' quote.
*thumbs up*
Sorry for being off topic but I just had to say that.

I found a bug that's been around for a while.
It seems that missles really suck compared to guns for pvp.
Please fix this bug.

It is fun to hunt bugs but there is a problem to have that list also. As player who submitted bugs in https://bugs.eve-online.com/mybugreports.asp? I feel completely ignored as all my 5 reported bugs was sent to /dev/null with no response.
Could BH team test at least what is going on with wormholes distribution system and why there are such unbalanced things like class 6 system(deadly unknown) with battlecruiser as maximum allowed ship to enter it? The good starting point is w-space system J101553, the wormholes type is almost always Q317 (max allowed max 25 million kg, battlecruiser only).
Thanks in advance!

That you didn't get a response on your bug reports was true until about 2 years ago. Back then the system was changed so that any bug reports submitted will generate a mail to the reporter when the report has been processed. If you haven't gotten a reply I suggest that you check your spam folder.

Please send in a bug report on this issue instead and it will be looked into.

Considering you have to be 18 or older, since it deals with a legally binding contract... I'm assuming people under this age limit couldn't get a legal guardian to fill the form for them?

Originally by: ISD BH Sabaoth One thing I should also note is that if you apply and get accepted into the Bug Hunter team you are not allowed to tell anyone else that you are apart of the team.
I foung a bug: "apart" (meaning in a state of separation, more than 1 part) is completely different from "a part" (meaning part of)

Correct, the person applying is the one that has to be 18 or older.

No, no restrictions other than the ones described in the EULA/TOS.

QUESTIONS:
1) Given that players have no way to cross reference or indeed see if there bug/issue has already been raised, then how do you mange these as it would lead to alot of duplication and indeed wasted GM/BH time. Do you have a way to corilate all related bugs automagicly or is this done manualy and is this something you do as a BH or does some other form of person do this???
2) Do you take ownership of a bug and champion it thru until it makes live and fixed or is its a dib dab kinda approach to testing. IE you pick something up - play with it and then poke it back into the pile
3) Do you still have interation of the bug whilst its being looked at by a dev or is it a palm of and palm back approach?
4) DO you plan to upgrade you bug tracking system to potentualy allow the bug raiser (ie players) to be able to track the bugs, behond dropping in details and then seeing nothing?
5) As a BH what perks do you get, ie do you get a free account to bug test with and play with? Do you get a free plex every now and then for your time. What motivationaly bonus's do you have if any or is it a case of you take the title and get away with what you feel? BEaring in mind that commitment is a two-way process.
6) What level of reports will you as a BH have to do?
7) Is the process BS5750/ISO9002 qualified, if not why not, its realy not hard to achieve and is indicative of how organised you are.
8) What is the minimum commitment you require from your BH's? is it X number of hours per week and are those hours rigid or are you flexible caring given what your paying for?
9) What NDA's would one have to sign and indeed what other aspects would one have to sign and what are the legal ramifications. FOr example if somebody was to become a BH and also be in the position of looking for real work then doing X number of hours of unpaid work for CCP would technicaly count againt them with regards to any benefit entitalments. As such do you have to have a job already to do this?
10) If one was do do this and again had to sign legal documents like NDA's etc etc, even though its unpaid what insurance is offered. for example if a BH fell of there chair due to the interactions of work then would CCP be liable to cover medical expenses as it was a work related accident even though its unpaid its still work by the utmost of definition.
11) Whats the average related turnaround of BH's, do they stay for ages or do you find they stay for only a few months and you get a high churn rate, if so why is that and if not then why do you feel that is?
If you could answear those I'd be grateful and I'm sure many others would be grateful as well as covers many aspects that haven't been covered already. I'm sure there are other great questions out there but those are just ones from the top of my head and would make or break me commiting my time to such a venture.
thank you in advance for your reply.

This is manually done BH and QA people. Duplicate reports are attached to one defect. This doesn't happen automatically.
Originally by: Zenst

You pick it up, test it, if it is a defect the pass it on to QA. Then some devs can ask you for more info or to retest it. Once the fix is in you can confirm the fix or say it isn't when it isn't. Some defects are just moved over but you get some sort of attachment with the more tricky ones and the BH keep an eye on them.
Originally by: Zenst
3) Do you still have interation of the bug whilst its being looked at by a dev or is it a palm of and palm back approach?
See above.
Originally by: Zenst

Not at the moment

What motivationaly bonus's do you have if any or is it a case of you take the title and get away with what you feel? BEaring in mind that commitment is a two-way process.
You get special testing accounts for the test servers which are of course free of charge and have special roles to ease testing. The main motivator for the BH is the work they do and they are very attached to EVE and the team. There is however EVE swag involved to some extent.
Originally by: Zenst
6) What level of reports will you as a BH have to do?
You check on player BR, pass them on and also file defects for the dev team directly if you find them during testing.
Originally by: Zenst
7) Is the process BS5750/ISO9002 qualified, if not why not, its realy not hard to achieve and is indicative of how organised you are.
It is not. No idea why not.
Originally by: Zenst
8) What is the minimum commitment you require from your BH's? is it X number of hours per week and are those hours rigid or are you flexible caring given what your paying for?
It is a fixed amount of BR filtered per month. But if RL is cutting into your time you won't get booted right away.

As such do you have to have a job already to do this?
You have to be over 18, have to provide proof of it and sign a standard NDA and the ISD rules. Not sure what you mean with benefits. But since you volunteer for ISD you don't have a contract of any sort saying "Mr. X is doing Y hours per week for us" and this way you should not be cut off any benefits for volunteering. It is like singing in a choir in your free time. Just with less singing.

There is no insurance offered since you are not contracted in any way with us. You just sign an NDA saying that you are not allowed to talk about the things you do in your free time.

This varies a lot. Once people had enough of EVE they move on, or if they change jobs or whatever else RL throws at them that makes them have less time to commit to their hobby. There is a constant influx of new people but there are of course older members. Especially the leads and mentors. Some have been with ISD for more than 6 years.
I hope this answers your questions. Sorry for the time it took.

I don't know but you can simply update your ISD application. It is also better to not advertise your application in public with your main.
