  • 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.

Today I found out I was not getting Alert pop-ups in the bell icon on the site, I had to check the watched threads page to see updates.

I'm just gonna copy my answer to someone else with the same problem here:

If your alerts aren't working properly you need to adjust your preferences.
I used to have some trouble myself, but my current settings do fine.

My Preferences are:
Alerts page options: Ticked
Alert pop-up options: Use per-alert configuration
Allerts summarize threshold: 4, all three options ticked
Alerting preferences: Use custom
Adds a collaborator to a thread - untick (both)
Removes a collaborator from a thread - untick (both)
The thread starter replies to a watched thread - Alert: Yes, Pop-up auto-read: No
Posts in a watched forum - untick (both)
Replies to a watched thread - untick (both)
For the rest down there I have both boxes ticked.

(Oddly enough I don't usually get any notifications for when the author / thread starter posts something in a thread.
Just when they add a threadmark.
I don't know if that's borked or what, but the alerts didn't work properly (read: as I wanted them to) without that box ticked.)
