Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.
Meditation makes sense - keeps them from having constant infinite charge, and it keeps the Personal Lanterns useful, whether in the middle of a fight or just as a time-saver.
Two things. Yes, Paul was decapitated before - against the angels, before he was cut into pieces and set on fire. He also had his arm cut off against the sheeda on Witch World; it’s why he implanted a ring in his skull (before that immediately backfired).
Secondly, when discussing how Dox could...
Sod-Yat, huh? And of course he did. After already visiting Daxam himself and getting kicked off, and without seeing the results of the diplomatic meeting. Moron.
Yep.
…Sinestro? Because I’m coming up blank for anything else.
Please. Like Batman's canonical preparations ever matter against anyone except other superheroes he needs to be 'cooler' than, or 'on the same level as' because he's popular. Prep-time can shrink miniature red suns into gauntlets for a fight against superman, but outside of making the hellbat to...
I mean, they’re ’just’ supposed to be ‘cops.’ Cops with godlike power policing civilizations, cops dealing with all sorts of species and all sorts of crimes, but still cops. It’s not the worst thing in the world if the rookies are still sensitive to the pain of people who are superficially...
Well.
I’d be worried that Lantern Coutara attacked first - just to generate additional drama - but even the green lanterns are fighting the Daxamites specifically, and it takes a lot to get sense through their heads.
I’ll admit that - for reasons of personal bias due to my own experience - I...
Given how his soul works, being made of orange light and having a unique magic system no one knows… I think that a blessing for Paul might be rather more difficult than average.
I do think he’d take it - he sacrificed bulls to Zeus, after all, and approved of Troia making little sacrifices for...
I am making an active choice to never have sex, and have turned down sex multiple times, as well as an active choice to never even try for adoption, because of how my parents raised me. I know exactly where I would falter, and what my issues would be (ignoring whatever dreadful new surprises...
Fuck yes.
That's how many parents see their children, yes. And we don't exactly discourage this mindset. "I brought you into this world, and I can take you out!" "I put a roof over your head, and fed you!" As opposed to getting arrested or giving them up for adoption.
Our media is stuffed to...
I didn't, and I was a boy scout. I'd read the bits on abuse at the front of the book, note how it basically described my parents' treatment of me, and repeatedly conclude that I couldn't show it to them because it wouldn't convince them to stop and trying to 'control their behavior' would result...
Ok, yeah, I misremembered by a country mile.
"I couldn't very well leave their country in turmoil."
"You did not have to create turmoil. Once you made your initial assessment, you should have realised that intervention would do more harm than good without the application of resources we are...
…I thought the whole planet worshipped the Eye-god? Dox didn’t say “you’ve started a war no one else wanted,” he said that there would be planet-wide unrest because the whole place depended on the Eye-Gouging God Religion for social order - it was woven into everyday life, like Christianity and...
Well. At the very least, Mrs. Yat doesn’t seem to believe her son would be terrified of her - not that delusional abusers aren’t a thing, but it means less planned malice and a bit of distance for me. More importantly, Arisia is - for whatever reason - much less interested in making assumptions...
It’s nice to see that she really loves him, but this bit on Paul’s part is an important reminder for an Orange Wielder.
Not that I wouldn’t cheer if she did it, but it would definitely make her look like the villain.
No. But they could have dropped the'kidnapping' narrative and the barely concealed rage, because it's clearly not a kidnapping. He showed up, gave the 'kid' a device that lets him travel the universe and contact people across the galaxy, and offered him a job. The 'kid' in question is old enough...
