So why is it demotivating to some and not to others? Rather than try to fix every bug every release and politely respond to every bug report because none of that is ever going to happen we can think about our expectations and the value of our reports and rather than become demotivated take satisfaction from knowing we made a valuable contribution regardless of whether we know anything about what happened to it after we reported it or not. Failure to have your expectations met leads to demotivation and the easiest way to fix that is to change your expectations.
