1. 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.
    Dismiss Notice
  2. 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.
    Dismiss Notice
  3. 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.
    Dismiss Notice
  4. If you wish to change your username, please ask via conversation to tehelgee instead of asking via my profile. I'd like to not clutter it up with such requests.

  5. Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

    For when you absolutely have to have a way to make a thread completely disappear from existence there's no better option than the Ignore Thread feature (or having database access, I guess). But there's a gap in the perfection of this option: ignored threads still show up in the "latest threads" preview on the front page. And that annoys me a bit. There's a few threads whose very existence I don't want to be reminded of if I can possibly avoid it. Is it feasible for the ignore function to be expanded to cover the front page?

    Ignore Thread is already an addon-provided feature. I can check if there's a new version of the addon, but if it isn't provided there's no easy way for me to make it do that.

    In that case is there a way to remove the Latest Posts widget from my forum view?

    If you've got an adblocker, you can probably tell it to block the element. For uBlock Origin (the one I use), you can just right click and select it from the menu.
