An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.
We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
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.

I am pretty sure that clown Starmer, the idiot feminists that pushed for the Steam bans and the buffoons in the EU that want to destroy encryption and implement real id on the internet are not part of anything related to Trump.
Black markets are free markets and storage is pretty cheap nowadays.
Even if they ban the visible part of the internet much of the good stuff will remain around in pirated form, locally runable LLMs will help create derivatives and so on and so forth.
And even if they shut those down that...
The UN is a useless organization mostly staffed by the relatives of shit hole country dictators that are there to suck money out of it.
I say starve it of money, kicking it out of every country on the planet and ultimately disband it.

Great, what a YouTuber I follow calls the MAFIAA is trying to "protect creativity" by letting any retarded, senile, paid for judge block websites.
Honestly, given the quality of dumpster slop the members of these...
The EU has a bunch of bullshit in the pipeline but it needs to also pass through various parliaments after and they are allegedly working on "privacy friendly" age verification, and given that it is part of some legislation the USA dislikes it might be stuck in legal limbo.

In the event they decide to try and block public DNS resolvers like google's, log DNS queries and so forth.
