The bug list is only available to the beta and alpha testers, not us mere mortals :)

bugs -> insects -> ants....a little joke from gregsandor :)

These forums do not contain a specific part/topic for bugs.
(Possible) bug are reported and discusses throughout the forums, mostly in the general discussion and support section, but also in image-sharing some-times.

The staff at Planetside read all the threads. If they read something which is a bug or could be a bug, they ask about it. The follow up is very thorough.

I know the Planetside staff do read all the threads and make note of bugs, I was only being ironic. However it would be sweet to be able to have a list of bugs so one dosen't have the feeling your merely repeating something they're already aware off.

You've a point Richard, but anyway users should check the forums first to check if something similar is posted/discussed before, in any case, regardless it's about bugs or how do I this or that? Example: the dozens of threads about how to load an object into TG2.

Hi,

If you come across a bug, please feel free to repeat it. At worst you'll get a terse reply along the lines of "We know, fixed in next version" :-) and at best it may be something we haven't come across before, or not in a way that we've experienced it before. The worst thing is to not mention bugs. It really helps if you can give as much information as you can about how you came across the bug, so we can attempt to reproduce it.

Regards,

Jo

ah,  didn't know that bugs are also insects in English..... not in my English vocabulary.... sorry !!

Actually, the software problem phenomenon was named after the insects.  It is sort of like an insect crawling into your work and chewing it up from the inside and making it malfunction.  The word "collection" is often used in the CG industry to refer to a set of related 3D models as in the "XFrog Plant Collection".  So the first thing I thought when I saw your post was that you wanted to find someone who made a lot of 3D insect models.  A "bug list" or "bug report" is what makes people think of software problems.  gregsandor beat me to the punch though on his joke.  But I'll show you the site I came up with anyway:

I also found a site showing you how to make a real bug collection:
