A lot of users have been trained by viewing years of essentially meaningless error messages: "Program has encountered a problem and needs to close", "Error!" or something which actually useful, but its by no means understandable to non-programmers.
Maybe people complaining about not being sent errors should make the errors themselves more approachable.

- callesgg 12y agoI agree with you :) I built an app that gives nice "errors" the main problem users just don't read stuff. Example: The user tries to import a excel file with products, The program gives the error message: The product "12321" can not be imported as it is no longer manufactured. User then asks why can't i import all products in this file?
