But just closing a bug should not be done. There's usually a reason why a bug is reported even if it's invalid.
Seriously, present some examples here, this talking in the abstract is stupid. We're all grown ups, no one is going to have their feelings hurt. Without them I'm sick of the back and forth on this- most devs leave bugs open for more than long enough to get feedback (and don't get it!), and we would all rather have bugs be either fixed or closed than hang around forever.
I think another problem is that the bug wranglers aren't necessarily involved in development and don't communicate with the developers before taking action on a bug. That's no fault of the developer, but is a fault with the bug wrangler.
