Bug Report Page Upgrade.

Things that either don't work or are missing from the bug reports:

1. You can't make a new bug report that is a BGA error that happens inside a game.
2. You can't BOTH filter 'Reports you voted for' and in sort by date order. You need a url like ?player=5117229&sort=lastupdate_desc. Clicking one overwrites the other.
3. When using the 'Reports you voted for' the 'show more' starts showing reports that I have had nothing to do with.
4. The ability to change a report between a specific game and a BGA bug. If the coder for the game thinks it's a BGA bug, then a simple button to move it across to the correct area.

I have already tried something similar here: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=51906

The title is "BUG-SYSTEM IS BUGGY: SEARCH-FUNCTION AND FILTER OPTIONS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY"
If i search for "bug system", this report is not in results. q.e.d.

So really if you want your report be found, you need to advertise it. In forum / tell friends / put in your profile / tell your opponents etc. You don't get votes from people looking for a report with the same concern by themselves.

I mean, really what should happen is they should just have a Github-style open-source bug tracking system, instead of making their own which will never be as good.
