    Could you add a linkable paragraph that reads "Posting bugs on the forum should be secondary to submitting a bug report." or something like this in the Guide to Effective Beta Testing.

    That would make it easier (for me) if someone posts a "bug-report" in the forum, such as here, because then I don't have to explain the forum isn't meant for submitting bugs (which I recently stopped doing, because it's more work) and just link that paragraph.

    Perhaps just put it under the "Documenting and reporting a bug" section? I post this link to provide a proper bug-report tutorial.

    One thing I would think would be useful is if with each beta people used they were asked to complete a survey saying is it better/worse etc only a small number of questions or people get fed up

    I'll make it more explicit in the guide. It's already part of the forum guidelines:
