"The best you can do is throw up a noscript message explaining why your app needs JavaScript."

Unfortunately, this is almost always a message explaining that your website demands Javascript, without an explanation as to why. I have yet to see the noscript message that says, "We only had time to create one version of the website, and we are too busy doing other things to create a non-Javascript version." I am not even sure what sort of technical reason could be given for requiring Javascript for form submissions or hyperlink functionality...
