More pick block bugs

 * When you use pick block on tall grass and fern blocks it gives you the bead bush version of grass.
 * If you select a full block made of half slabs of any type(Wood, Brick, Cobble, etc.), it gives you a double half block of stone slabs.

And while i was at it a noticed a few of the previous pick block bugs were fixed(like selecting grass gives you grass and not dirt).

Feel free to add more pick blocks bugs here because i know i have only found a few things.Sickma 04:17, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

Carrying bugs forward - Policy?
Some bugs and annoyances - such as the unbalanced enchantment system annoyance (which I quite agree with BTW) are being religiously carried forward to every new release to which thay apply. Others, some equally long-standing, are left behind on whichever release they were first reported in. Carrying all bugs forward would allow Mojang to just refer to the bug tracker for latest release, but would require someone on the Wiki to collate all the old unfixed bugs, deduplicate and repost them with each new release - quite a bit of work.

Another alternative might be to create a Frequently Reported Bugs and Annoyances page, or an Unfixed Bugs page and store the constantly-recurring ones there.

Which way's better? The current halfway house, with some bugs carried forward, others ignored and left behind, seems to be the worst of both worlds. You can't even say that if a bug keeps getting reported it must be annoying a lot of people, because some of the reported-once bugs are just as serious.

Do Mojang have an internal bug tracker, into which issues are copied so they don't get overlooked, or is this Wiki really their prime bug tracker? If so, EW!

Could we define a more consistent policy on how or whether bugs are carried forward from one release to the next? 82.69.54.207 14:12, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
