• We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
  • Our mod selection process has completed. Please welcome our new moderators.
  • 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.
  • 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.

    Announcement on Rule 3 and Doujin/Hentai Websites

    You seem to have no clue what links are. They are not the resource. They are standardised directions on where to find the resource. No more, no less. If a link makes QQ an intermediary then saying "go look for Y on X website" also makes QQ an intermediary. They are the same thing. The...

    Announcement on Rule 3 and Doujin/Hentai Websites

    But giving directions for where you can find a thing on another website is in fact the same as linking to that website. That's what a link is. The only difference is whether or not the directions are in a standardised format a browser understands. Because the rule makes zero sense if you know...

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

    The real trick is working out a good neutral solution for international transactions. Everything more local can be handled reasonably with cash and bank transfers, but once you start looking abroad it tends to get pricey, dicey, and bothersome.

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

    Don't be silly. You can't process n items for deduplication in less than O(n) time. With some added asterisks about hash algorithm constants. The individual B-tree operations are O(logn) but you'd need to do n of them.

    You're not making any sense. At all. Which I suppose tracks since you were claiming deduping images to be somehow impossible. Do you even know what an algorithm is?

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

    That's not unreasonable. Pretty sure it can be done in sub-polynomial time complexity relative to the number of images if you're being even slightly intelligent about how to go about it.

    Censorship by Payment Processors

    That would be a clear cut case of monopoly abuse, y'know.

    Censorship by Payment Processors

    So what are the best ways right now to avoid giving more money to the wretched hive of criminals and assholes that call themselves Visa, Mastercard, Paypal, and so forth? Using cash for anything in-person is easy enough, but online seems... difficult. Even when you have a choice it's hard to...

    Censorship by Payment Processors

    I think there are plenty of people who very much would go to war over that. They just don't have the opportunity.

    Cooking Thread~ Recipes & Things

    Honestly this is the only part that mildly concerns me.

    Cooking Thread~ Recipes & Things

    I thought the most important part was to make sure you avoid touching the debilitatingly hot sticky syrup of doom during the cooking process, lest you burn yourself to the bone.

    Censorship by Payment Processors

    You think they've walked it back? That's cute. The extra terms of service submitting to the whims of Visa and Mastercard are still there. The assorted adult games banned for spurious reasons are still gone. Some tags are still mysteriously semi-hidden. If Itch.io actually wanted to do any of...

    Censorship by Payment Processors

    Well technically it's Visa that has the monopoly since Visa controls over half the market in the US and probably other western countries. I don't believe Mastercard for a second though. Visa is trying the same bullshit too.

    Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    Dudes, this is neither a quest nor a story thread. Even though it is technically about story translations. Necro rules do not apply.

    Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    You jest, but improperly translated slurs are a legitimate problem in doujinshi porn books. So many bitches who should be sluts.
