Should web services reveal the running ticket numbers

Friday, December 29th, 2006

What should one infer looking at ticket numbers assigned to support/feedback requests from web services ? numbers assigned to 2 tickets sent with a 1/2 hour gap..

Lots of clueless users or users with problems or passionate users ?

Have you written twice to a web service and been assigned consecutive numbers ? :-)
Should web services use and reveal running ticket numbers or use running numbers but reveal GUIDs?

Why and Why not ?
