What happens to bug reports posted when offline?

It just dawned on me - what happens to bug reports (sent from within the app or the crash-startup-dialogue) when the computer is networked, but NOT online on the internet? When I’m in the studio, my systems are online on the internet, but when on stage, I’m on a closed network for NDI cameras.

And its often on stage (or rehearsals) that problems arise, and I report these issues, without much thinking because that’s what I usually do, but suddenly now I realise, I never get any replies for those, maybe because there is no internet when I do that…? Do these reports actually arrive anywhere? Are they queued up and sent whenever there is internet, or do they just disappear?

When you are offline. Manual bug reports don’t go anywhere. Crash reports are stored and automatically sent in the next time you are online, but yes, if you are sending bug reports without internet then we most likely won’t get them.
