The issue with logging in with email addresses has been resolved.
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.
Since the XF2 transition my news feed has been showing threads I'm ignoring as long as they're from someone I'm following. It clogs up my feed and I would like it to stop please.
That's what I do but after the change over refreshing the page doesn't remove the new alerts symbol from the bell unless I also click the "mark read" button after and sometimes I still need another refresh.
I've got the same thing, I'm getting threads I set to ignore appearing in my news feed. I think it's because the threads, while on ignore, are also from posters I follow.
Nah, I keep the alerts and news feed pages open all the time and every now and then, or when an alert pops up, I refresh both to see whats new and that also clears the alerts. Or it used too anyway.
I'm annoyed by the red number on the alert bell persisting after I refresh the alerts page. I have my preferences set to marked as read and even tried the other options but the only way to get rid of it is to click the mark read button or open the bell drop down menu.
I have something similar where the news feed is showing me threads I've set to ignore but are showing up anyway. I think it's because I'm following the thread creator for their other stories.
