I’d like to propose a suggestion to the Cursor community. It is recommended to introduce a reward mechanism in the Cursor community, such as rewarding members with 20 fast requests for reporting a certain number of valid bugs, or 10 Requests for submitting high-quality suggestions that benefit Cursor’s development. Implementing such a reward mechanism would help motivate users to report more bugs and provide better feedback resources for Cursor’s continuous optimization. This approach can effectively leverage user participation to accelerate the platform’s improvement process.

Absolutely not, because it could be prone to abuse. On top of that, if users experience bugs - its in their best interest to actually report the bugs to get fixes so they can continue to smoothly use the platform.
If users don’t want to report bugs, that is already counterintuitive in itself and bug reporting is an incentivized system. The main issue in it is the lack of details that users provide and them consistently trouble shooting or reporting back on solutions to the issues.
I report a bug, I get paid 20 fast requests? That’s about $1 per bug, which quite frankly, is absurd. Even for a valid bug or for high quality suggestions. What about a reward mechanism for the users that are giving their free time to help the community by trouble shooting and working with others on their issues in the forums? A lot of us do it with no expectation in return.
First, it is reasonable to set a monthly reward limit. Second, please read my post carefully: one needs to submit a certain number of bugs, and only valid ones qualify for rewards—this is equivalent to serving as an official tester compensated non-dollarly.

Yes, I read your post carefully and understood it. My response remains the same. Safe to say this has no chance of being fulfilled lol

Such mechanisms should be designed to solve issues. Cursor’s issue is not that the community doesn’t submit bugs. It’s that the team doesn’t address them.
We all get the same bugs. We all complain about the models stopping in the middle of the response without writing any code, or failing to use tools.
What we need are not rewards for submitting bugs, what we need are bugs getting fixed.
