Reporting bugs
BioWare bug report email addresses:

To ensure accuracy of bug reports on Neverwinter Nights, it is important for the person reporting to verify the bug is still in the latest patch. Far too often, bugs are reported after a patch specifically because the bug was not mentioned in the Patch Notes.

The best way to format a bug report is as follows:
 * Provide the full game version number that your game is currently at (e.g. 1.66.8074). This information can be found by either running the updater or looking at the top right of the in-game "Options" menu.
 * Indicate what expansion packs you have installed.
 * Provide a description of what the bug actually is.
 * Provide step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce the problem.
 * If you are a scripter and have found a bug in one of the BioWare supplied scripts, supplying the name of the script file with an issue is also extremely helpful.

Please don't post issues on the BioWare Community Forums in the hopes that someone at BioWare will see and fix the issue. There are more than 5 million posts on the Forums, and BioWare cannot read even a fraction of them. Your post will most likely get missed.

However, if you wish to discuss what you think may be a bug with other forum members, please do. Confirming that you aren't the only one having an particular issue is a good way to help identify there actually is an issue (rather than just a problem with your install, or a misunderstanding of the Dungeons and Dragons rules).
