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.

Sort of. Increases Openness to Experience, which is generally correlated with success in some ways like the other three of the Big Five (and the inverse of Neuroticism, the fifth). Do it too much and, well, it's unethical to experiment too extensively but based on the sample of scientists who...
Wikipedia notes that SLBMs are quite similar to ICBMs, and given its notes about conversion for satellite launches, it's likely that most ICBM platforms could launch most SLBMs instead. Not vice versa, though.
Ponies are dull. Like people with all the interesting parts removed. So is Grayven being a dick for no reason. I read it, because it wasn't as boring as not having anything to read, but I certainly didn't remember it.
Bullshit. Neither part of that claim makes sense. Gender imbalance was large enough that losing large swaths of women wouldn't be a huge effect, and there's no reason to expect women to be substantially more superficial to a degree that was obvious in statistics. I'd expect men like Wally here...
