  * The end-user's bug report was very superficial and didn't include the necessary information. The bug was rejected with a "canned" message due to lack of information. It also seemed to be more of a support request than a bug. I suspected that the problem was caused by a bad ISO download or an improper burn, which would fall under tech support rather than debugging. As such a combination of canned responses from ["Bugs/Responses"] was used (needs info and tech support).
  * The "canned" response wasn't just copy-pasted; I always modify them and try to make them more useful and applicable to the issue at hand.
