So when are the nvidia.com forums returning? To report bugs?

Okay, so i've always liked the fact that nvidia had a great community website that allowed users to share with each other and interact with nvidia software devs.

As we all know their forums were hacked a while back, and they promised to return shortly after. As far as I can tell, it has been months. This kinda sucks because i'd like to report issues with the most recent beta drivers - I get graphical corruption in DOTA2, inability to alt tab from ANY assassins creed game (it will crash with 304.79 upon alt tabbing) crashes in Counterstrike global offensive, and messed up SLI performance in TSW (although i'm sure they're aware of this), and it would be nice to report these issues.

Is there an alternative method for reporting issues to nvidia? As far as I can tell their forums are gone for good. That was one of the best things they had going for them IMO.

Although NV forum is labeled as "community", bug-reporting, requests and troubleshooting have been functional in semi-official manner.

I.e. ManuelG would regularly pass these bug-reports to driver team.

There is still an official way to submit bug report and ask Nvdia for support:
http://www.nvidia.com/page/support.html

Or you can try your luck at NV guru3d forum, from where manuelg sometimes collects bug reports.

It's been like 3 months... its getting a bit ridic...

The forums were kind of cool cause if you reported something...someone might say "hey I managed to fix that. Go into NVInspector and set this." Then an official response said "we are aware of this and have a fix ready for the next release".

we would probably still have the Kepler vsync stutter bug if it was not for the those forums. Nvidia could not just ignore all the reports.

CS:GO is basically unplayable for me right now, crashes constantly with 304.79. 301 works okay for it but then I get the vsync stutter bs.
