• The regular administrative staff are taking a vacation, and in the meantime, Biigoh is taking over. See here for more information.
  • A notice about Rule 3 regarding sites hosting pirated/unauthorized content has been made. Please see here for details.
  • Staff is working to deal with the problem of synonymous tags. See here for more information and to suggest tag mergers.
  • 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.

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    Hence the note I dropped on the last page. Yes, AI's good at brainwashing. From my point of view that's an additional reason to smash the AI and deprogram the cultists.

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    I'd suggest following the quote chain back; this is severely misconstruing what we were talking about. People who post AI stories and admit they're AI are definitely not fraudsters. It's the ones who claim their AI stories to be human-made in order to get people to pay them that we said were...

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    TTBOMK nobody's actually pursued a fanfic case far enough to get case law on whether it's illegal (the question is "transformative works"). They've all ended in one party or another giving up before verdict, and not always the fanfic writer. I'll admit, I'm also opposed to copyright - but...

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    I'm the only one in this thread who's talked explicitly about the for-profit scammers, and I already noted that it's not something QQ can fix. Not sure why you put this in. I will caution against the mindset of "fraud is everywhere, accept it, blame the victims for being stupid". Fraudsters are...

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    Unfortunately, cancel mobs exist and would rapidly convert the described system into a de facto censor board via brigading, forcing everyone to disable it in order to view stories the cancel mob didn't like. At worst, you'd see such a mob shaking down authors for money and/or story edits in...

    You might want to finish reading posts before replying angrily to them in the future. Literally the next sentence:

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    The reason there are witch-hunts is because there are a whole pile of witches fucking us all over. Let's be clear here, people who claim their writing isn't AI when it is, and use that to get donations? Those people are literal fraudsters breaking the law. It is not unreasonable to hate being...

    B_J, it's likely that nobody looked closely enough at the avatar-size version to read it, and that nobody came onto this page (where it's more obvious) until yesterday (when you made your first profile post - profile posts, though not comments on them, show up on QQ's main page with a link back...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    Your other standardised tags used "protagonist" rather than "MC". As others have noted, needs a split between the "protag is genderswapped (once)" cluster (e.g. Youjo Senki) and the "protag can swap gender" cluster (e.g. Ranma 1/2). I think it might be worth maintaining ASOIAF and GOT as...

    It's probably intended for pranking kids, rather than to be eaten by the buyer. The most legitimate use I can see would be to deter candy thieves by planting it in the place it's being stolen from. There are, of course, obvious less-savoury uses.

    Potential Rule 8 Question: Regarding the Recent Anti-NSFW Content Bans...

    No, if it accepted worldwide customers it'd be a lot more than that. Visa/MasterCard debanked anything that touches the Australian prostitution industry, for instance, causing major headaches. (Prostitution is legal in Australia.)

    Admin Vacation - Reign of Bii

    I'm fairly-certain QQ's had at least one wipe of user accounts since its founding, so it's the Xth account to be created on this version of QQ (I think the continuity break was the switch to XenForo, though I'm not sure). That's why there are a bunch of "first day" accounts, and why LG is #1...
