Now lets say 100 or so people have sent in this very exact same bug, would you all expect personal hand typed emails thanking your for your time and bug reporting skills?
The time they spend replying to bugs that get reported would be time that could be spent working on fixing the actual bugs.
That automated email is to get more information that you probably didn't send the first time.
It would be safe to say, they get a slew of bugs reports in that they cant do anything with due to lacking information. If they need more information, they will contact you.
If by sending a bug report in you are thinking your name will get posted in the game credits and get a full written reply as to how much they appreciate your bugreporting skills and their 10 point plan on how they are combating fixing your experience, think again.

No I don't expect a hand written form, and actually for some games (professional at least) they do respond back with at least a little hand written material. Anyways, I expect an automated message that will assure me that they will acknowledge my report, I didn't know from this message whether they were ignoring it or if this is simply what everyone gets. This paragraph they automate seems like they are saying that you did something wrong in the bug report and need to resend one in, at least to me. Maybe I am retarded though, you tell me. =) I also assumed it could mean that they ignored my report altogether.
By the way, honestly this game doesn't need a bunch of "knights in shining armor" to come to it's rescue, they need to step their game up, literally. I am aware it cannot happen overnight and the game just came out. Someone may reply to me saying that if I don't like it, leave.. Who said I didn't like it? I am merely complaining, you have never complained about something that couldn't be helped entirely yet? If you haven't, consider yourself beyond human. =) Anyways, its obvious that games have A LOT of different issues at launch, and need fixes and cooperation. I personally have been apart of one other RPG game at launch, and it wasn't as bad as this. I still enjoy playing this game so much and think it has great potential, just needs quite a bit of work before its full grace reveals itself. Right now it is just unfinished, a project I would call it. I mean the only ways to make gold is to sail/kill/poker, player economy should be presented soon I think.
