Chris Hermansen has pointed out that one of the problems with reporting bugs is that many people won't take the time to file a bug report, but instead they would look for a kick work around and never report.

Curiously, when I showed the proposed draft for the bug reporting guide to my brother, he mentioned something similar. He said that it would be good having something extra for motivating people to report.

I feel those views are pretty accurate. I think many people will only report only when it hurts so hard, and only after Ubuntu has been released. Then everyone will start complaining about Ubuntu being unstable, but what really happened is that nobody reported some of the important issues with enough time to fix them.

So I came up with a solution for that, which is to include a poster on the bottom of the page, used on World War to encourage workers to pay attention to the minor problems.

I think it's an atypical fix, but that it would do well on raising awareness about the importance of reporting the bugs.
