This is a known fault but has not been addressed.

That's been an issue for some time now but with all the other bugs the developers need to fix, I suppose it must be low priority?

Tricky_Dicky

Seems so. Causes issues for my invite process. API all round tends to be a much lower priority.

However, the bug volume is a problem that C.C has created themselves.

"the bug volume is a problem that C.C has created themselves" - no argument there!

I've been criticising this site for poor management and inadequate quality control for some years now and I'm not that bothered by who I may offend. The staff have probably got my number by now but in one topic in Admins Training... (I think it was) earlier this year, I can remember a guy running to the defence of the site.

He obviously thought I was out of line but I responded by posting a list of all the bugs and problems I've encountered over the years. Remember the problem with the '502 Errors' that was attributed to a recruitment drive launched by the site but apparently without any consideration of the extra server capacity required for a sudden rush of new members?

I'm guessing he's gone very quiet now since the club redesign? 😉

No argument from me.
