I think it would be wrong to discriminate against particular bug
reporters. I've found it often helpful to make specific suggestions
about the bug reports that I've received that aren't of sufficient
quality. Sure, that takes some time, but it also reduces repeat poor
submissions because eventually those specific suggestions improve the
quality of those reporters over time. That probably sounds naive and
too kind, but in my opinion, it's just the right thing to do.
Best wishes,
Mike
