-<h2>Bug Reports</h2>
+<h2><a name="bug_reports">Bug Reports</a></h2>
 <p>
-	First try the development (CVS) version, maybe your bug is already known
-	and fixed, but the new version hasn't been released yet.<br>
-	<b><i>Please read all the docs</i></b> in the package, most common problems
-	and possible workarounds are described somewhere.
-	We will <b><i>NOT</i></b> answer questions which are already answered in the
-	<a href="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/index.html">documentation</a>!<br>
-	If you couldn't solve the problem, then send us a <i>quality</i> bug report:
-	read the <a href="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html">bug reporting
-	section</a> for details!
+	Before reporting a bug, please try the latest development version
+	(Subversion HEAD) first. Quite possibly your bug is already known
+	and fixed, even though it may still be present in the version you
+	are using. Furthermore,
+	<b><a href="#docs">please read all of the documentation</a></b> that
+	comes with MPlayer. Solutions for most problems can be found there.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+	If you are confident that your problem is a real bug in the current
+	version, dive into the
+	<a href="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html">bug reporting guidelines</a>
+	and follow the instructions. Failing to do that will just waste the
+	time of all participants in the communication while you are asked
+	to provide the information described there anyway. It is also likely
+	to get you ignored completely. So please take the time to create
+	quality bug reports.
