I have been getting this issue ever since I installed 12.10 on my computer, it drives me to see a pop-up that said Report a issue or something in does lines, Is there a way I can take rid of it for good?

I think that you're refering to Apport

Apport is an Error Reporting Service provided by Ubuntu to intercept and analyse crashes and bugs as and when they occur. Crashes and Bugs may sound like bad things, but actually most operating systems will have several a day, and it doesn't mean your computer is broken, nor does it necessarily stop working. As such, Apport can usually be safely disabled, as it doesn't fix anything, it just tells developers that something went wrong.

All the commands below require that you open Terminal to run the commands. To open Terminal, just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard. When it opens, run the command(s) below:

You can stop Apport for the running session with:

sudo service apport stop

To disable, you have to edit the apport file, and Change the line that says enabled=1 to enabled=0

sudo gedit /etc/default/apport

Or you can remove Apport:

sudo apt-get purge apport

Note: I personally don't recommend that you disable it.
