An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.

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.

A handful of people -all human-looking- are moving around, offering water to those laying on blankets on the ground. It looks like the disease induces a fever, so they're not covered in anything-.
And I see one of the people doing the ministering cough, indicating...

That said, the fundamental question we keep coming back to is "so what do we do about it?"
It seems to be the common belief that much of what might be done in response to this behavior/reputation that may be punitive would infringe upon what makes QQ a place a lot of people feel comfortable in...
...magic.
I found that out thanks to the heroic sacrifice of 3 gnomes and 2 snakes that I won't bother to explain how I got my hands on, so quickly ~**cough**~ stole them ~**cough**~
Anyway, it turned out I was lucky that Hedwig already had an affinity for nature, and my connection with her...
...that don't grow in the British Isles. The shop itself looked like a Druid lives there, with all the magical trees and flowers that either **hang** from the roof or sticking to the doors and windows.
Then there's a shop called 'Curios for Curiosities,' a strange little store between...
...it, siphoned a little bit of my magic, vibrating slightly as it did so; soon after, the Knight Bus came to a halt right in front of me…
**Now I know for a fact it's not sentient, but…**
Before I could utter a word or go full-on investigative, the Grimoire reacted again; I found myself...
Yeah, I mean, at a certain point, I have to point out that it does seem like this type of anti-LGBTQ bigotry just gets to slide under the radar a lot. I can easily understand OPs reasoning for posting this thread, this isn’t exactly an uncommon thing. And it certainly wasn’t a minor case, it...

In Hogwarts. Inside his office, Headmaster Dumbledore sat quietly, listening to the different and bizarre sounds his trinkets were making while contemplating his most recent mistakes—just like he always does.
For starters, he had sought out Tom Riddle's Horcrux, all by himself, hoping...

"And that's why I am in need of your assistance in order to reach my goals, Overseer."
Otto Apocalypse contemplated over what his visitor proposed. After a long moment of silence, he said "I will admit that what you told me and what you desire for the future is interesting to say the...

This conversation at least promised to be less stressful than Yumeko's initial recruitment pitch, because in a pinch I at least had somewhere to escape to if things got really dire. However, that didn't mean I was going to have an easy time of this. While I was sure Yumeko could turn...
Honestly, Neptune is a playboy who flirts with everything that moves and was putting the moves on Weiss. And was willing to stand her up at the Dance than reveal he didn't know how to dance. Just turn up his asshole levels a little and make him a comical buttmonkey and you can have a real...
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.
...well, there are freedoms I don't want to give up. That's why I'm here, despite everything. Well, that and no small amount of spite. Ask me about the incident that made me quit SV sometime. So I'm willing to put up with a lot of shit that...
Oh I just thought of something funny.
Premise, that Neptune is a bit of an asshole.
Neptune: Well Jaune, who did you bring as your Date, your Mom?
Neptune and the rest of the people around him laugh, Weiss who stands with him as his date looks a little uncomfortable.
Jaune Laughs as well...
The Beacon Academy JNPR common room was a lively mess, with snack wrappers and open books strewn across the table, the late evening light filtering through the windows. Team SSSN and Jaune Arc sprawled across the couches, the air thick with banter and the faint hum of Aura from their earlier...
