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.

Well...
-Things are not getting better.
-There should be a lockdown (last time things were this bad, there was a lockdown), but apparently "the economy can't take another one". So it's just recommendations to set X% people to remote work.
-Only gatherings of 3000+ people are banned right now, so...
The primary goal is videos. I film two primary categories of footage:
-filming a stage with the camera on tripod
-filming somebody while they pose or walk, from different angles
(I will need to get a camera gimbal later when I save more)
The secondary goal is photos (well, see the...
I've been using a very old camera all this time (it's like 11 years old now, I think).
I want to actually film video of better quality than the people that do so effortlessly with smartphones.
In around a month, I'll finally be able to set aside about $1K (up to 1200-300) for this.

I got really hooked on Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead.
It's like the time when I first tried Dwarf Fortress all those years ago.
You though DF had a lot of detail... well, that's true: it has more than any other game, except for Cataclysm. It has even more.
(you generally can't go wrong with...
