I actually found this in the sysconfig late last night.  Basically my work
flow is a little different in terms that this is an internal helpdesk so i
dont want to send anything back to the user unless it is a question about
the ticket or a resolution.  What I ended up doing is setting it so that
when a new ticket comes in it will be new.  Then I can assess the ticket and
provide a priority (during this step i set it so i can change the state to
open.)  If i am rejecting the new request is simple close it, and if i need
more info before setting a priority i set it to pending and send back my
question to the user.

Basically what I figured out last night is how massively open ended OTRS can
be, it just takes a little while to figure it out and learn how powerful
sysconfig is.  :)

Thank for the help though.
