This is like forcing a graphic designer to use Microsoft Paint to design a website
Forums are a terrible medium for reporting, scrubbing, testing, confirming, prioritizing, tracking, researching, fixing, QAing, closing, and publishing bug reports. You don't realize it because you only see the surface: playing the game, stumbling upon a bug, and notifying the staff. That's where most players' responsibility ends, but fixing a bug goes far beyond just making a bug report and notifying the staff. That's what ALM is for.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applicati ... managementSomething like Tuleap helps the staff do all of the aforementioned tasks: players submit new bugs or help confirm existing bugs, ISVV researches and confirms the bugs are indeed bugs and helps explain to the developers what's presently broken and how it should ideally behave, then fixes are made, tested, and eventually rolled out and the initial bug report is closed; an ALM suite helps maintain and record all of this. It's extremely hard to do all of these things on something as limited as a forum.

I just want to be able to report bugs. Please?
The bug tracker is legit. Just click the "Advanced" link near the bottom of the warning and it'll let you proceed to the site (Or at least that's how to do it in Chrome. Not sure about other browsers). The reason you're getting the warning is because your browser doesn't recognize the website's certificate. Security certificates cost money, and in this case the bug tracker isn't using one (It's free), so you get a warning before accessing it. Nothing to worry about, just click past it and register. There's over 1,000 bug submissions last I checked; we could really use you guys' help in confirming and squashing these bugs.
