Detailed description

• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.

-
• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened
It seems that (for me anyway) opening the page of bugs I voted for (boardgamearena.com/bugs?player=nnnnnnnn) shows the bugs I voted for, which is only a handful so far, but at the bottom there's a "see more". Clicking that seems to bring up, a chunk at a time, the entire site bug list ordered (by default?) by number of votes.

Report history
Not exactly the most important bug :-) but probably easily fixed...
We need more options/filters in this area. Same for approbation page : filtering the one you accepted to test, the one you already validated, having instant access to all the bugs for a given game you're now testing. The default filter/tab should be the one you're actively testing now (i.e. NOT ALL the games, nor the ones you already voted 5* for). Would be more efficient for your testers, and help having so many new games to stay so many good games :-)
Maybe at some point, having a chance to track new translations that were freshly proposed (but might need a bit of polishing) would be useful too.
Globally speaking, testers need to adhere more closely to the dev lifecycle, and this should be automatic, through the tools ;-)
If I can't bring up a list of bugs that I've reported but which are still outstanding, it's harder to find and answer any follow-up questions the developer might have had
Although responses generate email alerts, it seems that this doesn't always happen: I just chanced across a bug I'd reported, and which the developer had responded to while leaving the bug open, but I never had an email notification of that.
Seems like the bug report facility needs a good look at. As was noted above, a good interface helps encourage people to report bugs.
Look at a typical public library's catalog search for inspiration, though I'd expect there are existing free packages that will already do the right thing, with full Boolean capabilities.
Example: "Only bugs I've upvoted" (this is currently available, but not in conjunction with any other search criteria, it seems), "Only bugs I have NOT upvoted" (in case I want to browse to see what deserves an upvote), "Bugs upvoted by player X" (either because player X just mentioned having filed a bug report, or because I know player X likes the same games that I do)
Example: "Game = Monopoly AND Type = rules", "Title contains X", "Message body contains X", "Title contains X or Y"
If a search term is multiple words, allow for it to be interpreted as a single phrase, a conjunction, or a disjunction.
Also, "Number of hits to display on a single page", to avoid having to go through the "More" button.

Work-around:
add the following at the end of the http address to add sorting when you are already filtering.
&sort=lastupdate_asc
(and similar extra strings for other sortings)
1) Click to get the "Bugs you voted for"
2) Manually add "&sort=lastupdate_asc" at the end of the address bar of your browser.
Thanks for the work-around.
What is the syntax for the other sort order?
Is there a request to see our own bugs/suggestions ?
"&sort=lastupdate_asc" puts oldest at the top,
"&sort=lastupdate_desc" puts newest at the top.
I see that "Reports you voted for" is implemented by including your player ID number in the URL, so that tells me how to get "Reports that [other person] voted for", as well. But it doesn't seem to work to combine both your player ID and a search keyword, for example. (Still hoping for full Boolean capabilities in a future release.)
Those are exclusive filters. (If you're an item guy you might have guessed that already because those filters are behind radio buttons in the interface...)
You can combine game filter with a sorting filter through the address bar trick or the UI
You can combine game filter with type of report but only through the UI
You can combine game filter, sorting and type of report but you have to do game and sorting" first and then do type of report through the interface. It won't work in the opposite order.
That could be done by a bug section in the wiki.
But if the filters get lost by clicking "see more" we can support you even less.
