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.

  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.

    Hey just wanted to alert to an issue I just encountered. I still dunno exactly what caused this, but basically my phone's 'trusted status' for this website ran out tonight.

    Like it usually does, it sent a verification code to my email, which I then tried to input into the website on my phone to log back in as I usually do.

    However, even though I put about a dozen different verification codes in, none of them worked. All that happened was it showed the "Your Changed Have Been Saved" message, followed by sending me right back to the verification code screen at which point a new code would be generated and sent to my email.

    After being sent like 17 of these emails, I ended up using one of my back up codes that two-factor verification sets aside because I was never logged out on my PC and that worked perfectly to log me in on my phone.

    Still don't know if it was something on my end or not, but wanted to post about it in case it was a sign of a widespread problem for the website or something. I did try to clear my cache and cookies, but that did not seem to fix the verification issue.

    My issue is resolved though for the moment, so this is more just a heads up than anything that needs to be fixed for me immediately or something.
