Feedback to Test IO
Dear Test IO Team,
As testers, we would like to kindly request that you consider implementing a system where, if a copied bug is reported (whether intentionally or unintentionally), the payout is automatically set to zero. This approach would help avoid misunderstandings and ensure fairness for both testers and customers.
When we participate in many test cycles for the same customer, it becomes very difficult to manually check all past cycles before submitting a bug. Having such a system in place would allow us to focus on providing valuable and unique findings without the fear of unintended duplicate reports leading to unnecessary actions on our accounts.
We truly want to avoid reporting copied bugs, as they do not add value to the customer. By following this suggestion, it will create a smoother experience for testers and motivate us to confidently report new bugs without hesitation.
Thank you very much for your understanding and consideration.
