The site has now migrated to Xenforo 2. If you see any issues with the forum operation, please post them in the feedback 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.
This is not a fully official answer, but generally speaking any additional content (omake, fanart, etc) will always be fine, a significant review/analysis of existing content is probably okay, and many other things will be contextual.
Simple 'thanks' for the story in any form (anything that...
There isn't a sunk cost here, there's an investment; because the realistic alternative is to just abandon QQ entirely.
'With the right devs'? What, ones that don't mind being paid in free porn and pixie dust?
Because every passing update to XF2 makes it inherently more secure than XF1, which...
... no? No. Yeah, no.
That's arguably worse than leaving it on XF1 alone since the likelihood of corruption from trying to have two different software read/write to the same database, uh... Well, it approaches one, to put it mildly.
Even assuming you mean the most reasonable possible...
We'll consider agreeing to remain on XF1 permanently if one of the people insisting on that signs a legal agreement accepting full personal liability for the consequences of the inevitable security issues.
psst this is a joke, ofc we won't do that
Putting aside whether or not masks '''work''' (heavy sarcasm quotes, ofc they do), the idea that you shouldn't have to mildly inconvenience yourself to make life easier, or even possible, for other people is unbelievably infuriating.
I'm sorry that they can't have sufficient empathy to allow...
An entirely appropriate response to a post from Aleh, resident expert in all things pseudoscience and anti-vax bullshit related, that's absolutely loaded with citations.
'Nuh-uh'.
I was going to say some things but, frankly, Aleh said it better than I could.
Instead I shall simply descend to deal out my usual punishment.
TrAiT0r, by posting this pathetic and idiotic tripe you have successfully earned yourself the disdain of all of the people posting here because of...
Boy, that sure is a thing you said, huh. You said a lot of things today, and of them that is one. Maybe, in the future, you can consider not politicising the global pandemic quite so hard given that exact attitude is one of the things that made it so bad, hm?
Food for thought.
Congratulations, both of you, for actually being in the 'reasonable excuse' camp regarding that, and still making an effort anyway.
Unlike the dime store karens "oh no i cant breathe if i put this on for five minutes to go buy my cheap plastic tat".
After a thorough review, it seems that most of the meltdown that happened here was about something that was utterly irrelevant to the actual rule change. All we had intended to do was codify an internal policy change; that the mere discussion of a non-standard gender or sexual identity existing...
I believe I made myself perfectly clear when I compared this to the Covid thread.
Don't even start.
Continue to obey rule one, and nothing will change.
No. This has been under discussion for some time by the moderation team.
The long version is that due to these issues prior being held under the umbrella of Rule 8 there was a not-insignificant problem with people kicking up an unwarranted fuss regarding characters having differing or...
ANGRY PUFFBALL has been threadbanned and their post removed as per the thread's ongoing zero tolerance policy for posts promoting conspiracies that downplay the severity of the global pandemic.
