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.

    Recently read this story (NSFW after the fight)

    CapesAndCloaks on mcstories
    and I really liked howhat the world was set up. The protagonist managed to be a real person and the world made sense even while keeping the trappings of a super powered world.Has anyone read any similar stories they'd be willing to rec?

    A specific example of one of the things I really liked was that the main character was doing grunt work for a major villain in order to build some contacts and a rep.

    Seeing that this is the SFW part of the site, maybe it would be a good idea to kill the link?
