![]() ![]() This does not mean you shouldn't report bugs that don't always happen the same way or happen infrequently, or that you can't get a good repro for, but it does mean those bugs will be much harder for me to fix. It's basically a recipe to make the buggy behavior happen for you (and me!). So, when posting a bug report, the key is to do some work on your end to be methodical and give steps to repro the bug as simply and as clearly as you can. It can be the difference between 10 minutes to fix and 10 days to fix, literally. A bug that doesn't repro is very hard to fix, whereas a bug with a "good repro" is usually pretty trivial to fix. ![]() The goal of a bug report is to describe the steps to reproduce the buggy behavior (whether it's a crash that deletes your entire hard disk or it's a word that's not pluralized correctly in the user interface somewhere) well enough that I can step through them on my machine and see the behavior first-hand.
