BGA admins, the load bug report function appears to have stopped working completely for the past two weeks. Is this a known problem in studio?

This function works only if the bug report is declared while the game is still live (game databases are garbage collected after a while, so if the report is made later, there is no database to snapshot).

Great solution. I have to add, that the solution from here (at the bottom):

http://en.doc.boardgamearena.com/Practical_debugging

does not work, because, the "load slot 1" reloads the page, then Javascript aborts, and the chat is not available, and even if, then in the chat window the message appears "spectators are not allowed to chat".

It's why you need to open a 2nd window of the same table.
You click on LOAD SLOT 1 in the first window.
Chat will be available in the 2nd window.
I remember that you have a thread about this method in that forum.
