• 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.
  • Our mod selection process has completed. Please welcome our new moderators.
  • 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.

    Hi I'm waiting for approval for my first fanfic post and wanting to know how long the process is please.

    It needs a mod to manually approve it, and I have done so now. It will take another 30-60 minutes for the system to unlock the full permissions for your account.

    Thank you so much I appreciate it.
    Hi Megaolix, I was wondering if you could help me with verifying my account (gmail)? I'm not getting any verification emails, and I'm slowly losing my mind.

    Hey, so I made a new post with my fiction and I'm waiting for approval. I don't know if I should contact you or just wait, so I'm just letting you know just in case.

    As anti-spambot protection, before an account has full permissions, it needs its first post to be manually approved by a moderator. Then, after 30-60 minutes, an automated process grants those permissions. I've approved the ones in the queue for you. Have a great day!

    Thank you very much. I read about it somewhere on a forum. Have a nice day!
    Hello Megaolix,
    I created my account some time ago but did not receive a verification email. I did not check to see of Gmail would work with QQ. Could you please verify.
    Thanks

    Hello! Sorry to bother you but I forgot to post before making my first thread after making an account, so it got hidden to await mod approval. Another poster recommended I reach out to a mod to see if that can get lifted.
    hello sorry to bother but i created an account but i still haven't recieved a comformation email
    Hello, I would like to request that the date of birth on my account be updated to December 9, 2000. When I first created this account, I was 16 and was used to providing older ages to protect my personal information and access all features on websites. I completely understand if this cannot be changed, but I would be grateful if you could consider my request. Thanks.
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    Well, congrats on not exposing your age in public and getting booted until 18 like some did, I suppose. Done.

    Thank you very much and my apologies for the inconvenience

    Hey. Megaolix just wanted to say thanks for all the work you do on the site and all the help you've done for others. Though this is early, I wish you happy holidays and hope that the next year will be even better than this one.
    Hi, I created an account a few days ago, but I still haven't received a confirmation email. how long does account approval usually take?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    You used gmail and ignored the notice to not do that while you registered. So I validated you manually.

    Thanks
    Hello Megaolix,
    I have created this account some time ago I realized too late that gmail does not work well with the site and I have mistype my email address as well so it not even my correct email address.
    Is there anyway to change my email address now or do I need to create a new account?
    Sorry the inconvenience on me not paying attention.
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    I set you as verified, so you should be good to go now. In Accoutn Details, you can change your email.
    HopeToEnjoyLife
    Thank you very much and sorry for the inconvenience.
    Hi Megaolix,
    I see you get a lot of these so I apologize In advance. I never got the confirmation email. Would it be possible for you to either resend or verify me?
    Hi, I have been trying to get verified since last week and apparently I just found out that Gmail is not a very good match with QQ, so can I still change my email or do I have to create a new account?

    Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience I caused.

    Hi again, I have a question, is there a difference between being a valid member and getting approved by and admin? Because I can't access NSFW stories.
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    That one is weird. I say go ask Alethiophile or Ultima about this.
    Hi. I'm sorry, but I can't see any NSFW content. Can you tell me why this is happening and if there's a way to fix it? Or am I just not seeing the NSFW section?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    Dunno why. I tried setting you as valid, see if it helps. Otherwise, try contacting Alethiophile or Ultima.
    Tetraframmaton
    In any case, thank you for your work and I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

    P.S. Everything appeared, thank you
    Hey, I've been waiting for a couple of days now on the confirmation mail but have yet to recieve it, how long does it traditionally take for the confirmation mail to be sent out
    Thanks in advance !
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    Of course you did not, you used gmail. Anyway, set to valid.
    Harrony
    Sorry to bug you, but should i refrain from using gmail for anything pertaining to this site
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    It does seem gmail does not want to receive QQ emails. If that matters to you, you probably want to change that.
    Hi, sorry to bug.

    Question: how long does account approval usually take? I have been waiting just over a month, but have not seen anything yet. Have I missed a step somewhere?
    PolyBBenson
    Hi, sorry to bother you, but how do I change my email? I looked around some threads and one of them said that I shouldn't use gmail, and so I went to try to change my email address to something else but it won't let me. I also didn't get an activation email. Any response is good.

    Hello i made an account but didn't receive a verification email, could you please verify my account?
    So with a recent update I can't get on normally and am trying to verify my email which I think is the problem. As any link to the site isn't working for me. Problem is I can't get back to the site from the verify button on my email. Can you help or send me to someone who can help?

    Also trying to find what update did this but can't find it again.

    Okay I am still somehow having trouble using links to the site. Do you know any other problems I might have or who to ask?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    At this point, I really do not know how to help you. As far as website links go, the only issue I can see is that both 'forum.quest*rest omitted*' a 'question*rest omitted*' works. If your cookies are on one set of links but the links you try are the other set, that would probably be the issue and it's a problem for everyone.

    Thanks for any help anyways though I appreciate it.

    hi i was wondering what the rule's are for avatar pics i looked but i couldnt find anything so i dont know if i just missed them?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    The only rule that matter there is Rule 2. As avatars are not behind the login wall to see, all avatars thus must be SFW.

    ok thanks for the info
    Could you verify my account please? Also an email to add to my safe sender list for alerts and stuff?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    Verified, but I have no idea what you means with the email stuff.
    Eeuufill
    Thanks. Never received an email for verification and searching on google says emails from this site were blocked or something for outlook. Figured if I could add whatever email is used to my safe sender list. Never mind if that's not how it works.
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    You can change your email in Account details anyway.
