Torches not providing light

Placed torches randomly stop lighting any space from where they are. In order to fix, the torch has to be broken and replaced. 

 

I don't know how to explain this properly, will try to get a picture next time I see it.. 

 

Edit: attached screenshot. The screenshot may be slightly misleading due to my brightness configuration but the lit area a little further is a properly functioning torch.

Did you placed torch nearby chunk's end (corner)?

 

@branko, it happens everywhere, I also don't know how to get chunk borders on Xbox.

I have a similar bug, that I know chunk borders with torches:

1-14 light level 15 torch

I've honestly been dropping a torch every 7 blocks just cuz this glitch has been causing mobs to be able to spawn in these areas.. I wouldn't mind so much if it was just visual..

@ocelot, I did try the search feature actually, it brought up 50 results and, of which, only one had anything to do with torches, about 20 results down, even though the exact term that I searched was "torch" so you guys need to either fix your search function or stop recommending it like it's currently Halloween and the search function is the candy....
