The BUG command works differently depending on which Front End is being used. In the Wizard Front End typing bug will produce syntax help as below:

This will issue an email to play.net's bug tracking database. Be as detailed as possible, describing what you were doing, the behavior you expected, and the behavior you experienced. Preferably you should be in the same room you were in when the bug occurred, holding the same equipment, and wearing the same gear, as this information will be included in the bug report. DO NOT ISSUE BUG REPORTS FOR GAME CRASHES OR LAG PROBLEMS. Do not use this mechanism to make suggestions or feature requests. Those should be posted to the forums.

Syntax

BUG {category};{title};{text}
ex. BUG room;The description is missing;The room description is blank for the interior of Abu's House of Weapons.

For Genie and any other FE with a mapped semi-colon:

BUG {category}\;{title}\;{text}
ex. BUG room\;The description is missing\;The room description is blank for the interior of Abu's House of Weapons.

Categories
