The stalebot is most times useless. The only scenario where I can see use of it is a maintainer waiting for the reporter to add information. But closing issues because no maintainer checked on them? That's garbage and discourages bug reports.

But they get scared because their program has 500 bugs! Close them and now your program only has 10 bugs! Problem solved.
