Have a report error button now

I added logging, and added a button for users to report problems. A window pops up and they can type the problem and their email and click submit. I worked out how to send files in a POST request, so the log file gets sent to my page, where nothing much happens yet, it just gets saved to my server (just to prove I can upload it and do something with it). I found out how to make a chatbot that can do notifications (not just reply when you type a message) that uses the RSS of your site. So now I am going to learn about RSS feeds and add one to my page. I will update it when a) a user reports a problem, and b) when there is a commit to the guide. Then, using something called 'Zapier', I'll make a chatbot for Slack and it can notify me when something happens so I can fix it :-) When I am able to get notifications of user-reported errors, I'm pretty sure that's enough for people to start using it, and I'll release an alpha build. Repository is at https://github.com/quantumcat1/A9LH-Guide-File-Downloader if anyone wants to know!

Is this a site suggestion for gbatemp?

I don't quite follow everything you've said, but I really like the file downloader idea. You're always helping people with a9lh problems, and it's awesome to see that you're thinking of new ways to help noobs.

Thanks for the hard work.
