or.. you know... whenever it's convenient for them. Seems like a good time for another 2 week vacation CCP. This is the reason. Put SP into forges, especially if you end up using an Assault Forge, you'll get the 'bug'. Because it isn't a bug. It's just inconsistent application of skills, because let's be honest; 1.8 is the worst patch deployment (not that the content is bad; I quite like it) since Chromosome (and possibly before that, but I wasn't around then).
Merriam-webster's 2nd definition of a bug; an unexpected defect, fault, flaw, or imperfection.
Wiki's definition of a software bug: A software bug is an error, flaw, failure, or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways
The Forge Gun bug is a bug regardless of whether it has to do with the FG itself or the skill.

There are times where it doesn't actually fire, HowDidThatTaste. Just yesterday I spawned on a roof uplink that had an enemy ADS flying around it. The ADS wasn't more than 60m away and was trying to hover but was moving slightly to my left; I fired 5 shots (without reloading) at the leading edge and each shot was a blank. At that range and with how slowly he was moving even with the split second delay that does happen sometimes, I should have killed that DS but he didn't take any damage.

from what i see it happens more in high lag areas of the map, but it is not restricted to there. I've been forging since before 1.4 and this random firing glitch has never happened until 1.8.
Yes it has, it's been happening since at least 1.6. Towards the end of 1.6 is when I got into heavies and it happened the very first match. It wasn't nearly as severe for me before 1.8 as it only happened once or twice every so many matches; but then in 1.7 it started happening slightly more in matches with less matches in between it happening and now. it happens multiple times in every match that I use it.
