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.

That’s not any better. If you can’t even tell if it’s a switch or not, and it may be connected to a Malthusian-scale doomsday weapon, call in the Malthusians.
This is unbelievably stupid.
The problem is the Guardians run the GLC, and they don't really "do" official channels with peer powers. They'd respond to a fellow Maltusian, but they wouldn't internalize that Paul is, in fact, someone who founded the Orange Lantern Corps, took down Larfleeze without a fight, and is Ophidian's...
I don't really get how four stars could have been slammed into one another already, @MrZoat. The sheer distance involved, not to mention the absurd amount of mass you'd need to accelerate, and finally, figuring out how to use FTL tech on a star rather than a ship with its FTL systems built into...
There are no skaven in Mousillon. Mousillon is surrounded by the rest of Bretonnia and the ocean (which is also patrolled by Bretonnia). Also, Mousillon is a place already staked out by vampiric knights and undead. Without any warpstone there, there's just no incentive for any skaven to try to...
This. Darkseid has no love for the real Grayven, while Renegade is undoubtedly fascinating as both entertainment and curiosity. Renegade is so unique among Apokalyptians, both in terms of his behaviors and in terms of his goals/outlook. And while Darkseid would normally have no qualms about...
This. Paul showed wisdom in wanting to check with the actual experts before even getting attached to the plan, let alone putting any of it into action. He then immediately accepted the judgment of said experts without showing any sign of being upset or offended.
To asur archmages, that is very...
But Barda wasn't directly working under him. Hell, she didn't even attack on his order. Barda is his relative, not his subordinate (even informally). Also, she didn't press him to the point that he had to call in outside help; he just wasn't arrogant enough to assume that he'd win no matter what...
Not sure how that qualifies? She never managed to even scratch him. Hell, he achieved first blood before Diana even showed up.
Plus, I'm not too keen on your take on "Zoat's rules for New Gods" without some direct citation.
The technology, sure. The infrastructure and industry? No. Sure, you can buy an FTL ship from another civilization, but that does not give you the infrastructure, industry, expertise, etc, to make them yourself or even maintain the one you have.
And while the medicine would obviously differ...
You misunderstand. FTL is inherently harder than stopping or reversing aging.
It makes him more self-aware, and it makes him more aware of the emotions of others.
I find this rather bizarre. There's simply no way in hell civilizations with technology advanced enough to trade with the rest of the galaxy can't readily prevent or reverse aging. Hell, we're already on the path towards that capability IRL (it'll probably take another century of...
That doesn't make sense, unless he is literally saying, out of nowhere, for people to sexually enter their friends (but saying it in as minimalist a manner as possible, even at the cost of being understood).
It's just wrong. Your writing is supposed to convey things to the reader in a way that...
