One thing it's infamous for is this: "An unknown error has occurred.
Technical department has been notified", or words like that. Tell this to
a programmer, who will laugh and explain that there is NO SUCH THING as
an "unknown error".


Sure there is.


When these conditions exist...

1) Error message is always the same
2) Error always occurs in the same features, moments, whatever you want to
call them
3) Errors in these features have continued for over a year

.....the error is known. However, I'll add that my opinion is based on a
personal belief: If a problem continues that long, I assume that it's either
acceptable, or that the creators are lazy or stupid.
