    You want a real solution?

    It costs $10 for an un-vetted reporter to submit a bug report. If the developers review the bug report and find it to be valid and helpful, you get your $10 refunded and you’re added to the list of vetted reporters who can submit bug reports for free. If not, the foundation keeps the $10 and uses it to help pay the salaries of people who have to review these bug reports.
