How do I report bugs to Blizzard?

There are several annoying bugs within the animation API.

I really would like to report them. But I don't know where. Is there any way to do this?
And would they even care if I do?

Just post them on the official forums?

Is that a statement or a question?

I'm an EU player. I can't post in US forums.
My last forum post was long ago. But I clearly remember that Blizzard wasn't really caring about the EU forums.
I would be really surprised if a but report posted on an EU interface forum would make it to someone who knows what I'm talking about or even would been read by a person who could/would forward it to developers.

First confirm here or somewhere else that what you think is a bug is also perceived that way by the community. Then either submit a bug report in-game (it's being directed directly to the developers and you won't get any status on that - at least that is what a game master told me) or ask someone here to post it on your behalf on the american boards. Apparently what's on the EU boards gets redirected, but you won't get status on that too.

I can post in the US forums for you. Last time I posted a UI bug report (here), it took approximately three months to fix (initially reported late Semptember or early November 2012, fixed on the 2nd of January 2013); so I wouldn't expect any direct response or instant fix.

The posts above seem to be the situation at WoW. I tried to add an issue about bug reporting as it is currently done and Blizzard either deleted it or made it inaccessible to everyone else.

I do not like the new system and I think that returning to the previous setup would be a good idea. I doubt that Blizzard would support that.

Also don't plan on hearing back from a game master. I have reported several bugs and have not received a single response from any of them.

It's been a few days, do you still want the bug(s) reported?
