'Duplicate of MC-XXXX, please use the search function to see if your bug has already been submitted. Currently over 50% of tickets are being closed as duplicate.' I've seen this countless times, sorry for being rude but if 50% of tickets are duplicates that IS A GOOD THING !, bugs are getting fixed. And also, I have 3 bugs to report I don't do it because I don't have the time to do it properly explained, leave alone searching for duplicates, and also if I've come here it was to report a bug not to search for it. Mojang pays people ! Mojangers searching for duplicates is part of the job, welcome to bug reporting.
I'm a computer programmer and I face this exact same issue, but I react different to it, 50% duplicates means, at the very least, 100% more info than just one report per issue.
Stop saying that stupid statement, and start saying: 'Marked as related to MC-XXXX and THANK YOU for you report.' that is the proper way to do it.
I've been wanting to say this for so long... and I could have used the time to report a bug.
