I think this recent change will help. Maybe we need more?

On this same page, Contact Us, we have this wording in the first section--

If you need user support and don't want to file a bug...

Please navigate to the Support

Should we change this to something more friendly, like ...

If you have a problem with OpenOffice...

Please use the Support Page...
