We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
QuestionableQuesting has new Moderator positions. To submit your application, please see this thread.
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.

Fanfiction itself is already in a legal gray area because the author is making use of characters/settings that fall under someone else's copyright, and it's technically an even more blatant violation if the writer makes money from such work either by writing commissions or collecting donations...
Eh in all honesty the argument that writing AIs make use of stolen content is arguably the weakest in my eyes. Like at that point anyone who takes particular inspiration from a book is stealing (before you go that's different, copying a writer's particular style is both more blatant and more...
Ah yes, the QQ singularity is growing !
For how long the applications will stay open ? I am willing to apply but I need to think upon it and end my week of work to be able to put together something good by being well rested !
According to the story, the Yitian Sword should contain the Nine Yin Sutra. Fine. But the story then says it's within the blade, stuffed in between folds of metal during the siege of Xiangyang before the mongols broke the city.
???
Has the author even seen how hot a sword is during forging???
Pulled into a public park’s parking lot this morning, found some shade, it’s a good spot to keep to during the day as long as a lot of others aren’t crowding it
So as I pulled in, I noticed something on the ground nearby: it turned out to be a small, unopened, fully sealed jar of peanut butter...

1) You (general) criticize AI for stealing and being unoriginal without critical thought or originality.
2) You repeat the same argument you heard somewhere else (stealing) without really understanding the nuance or tech beneath it...
Hah, being a mod means remembering exact wording of the Rules alongside it's spirit. Goodspeed, whoever the new mods going to be.
Then big kudos to whoever work on this forum engine, since Xenforo forums tend to be bad with this.
That's reminds me that UI here is better than on SV and SB, even...
As long as the percentage is not 100% and the scraping is an opt-out instead of an opt-in (and even that opt-out option is not a guarantee in the current climate), that makes no difference to me.
A lot of things are legally not a theft, but that doesn't change the spirit of what it is.
Oh...
Author, i beg you! Give those poor pokemon, actual pokemon names! and not what ever Iron Moth and other nonsense the originals were called by, you have the opportunity to rename every last one of those buggers
They could have a bunch of small ones
You are right, the good riddance is more aggressive than the rest. Still matches your attitude, considering you give no actual solutions and demand the mods to do something miraculous with something that is not even their actual job. There's literally no way to detect AI-assisted text or images...
