An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.

The regular administrative staff are taking a vacation, and in the meantime, Biigoh is taking over. See here for more information.
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.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.
If you turn off javascript you can be consistently sent to the page, and if you've got a laggy connection you can like before the page finishes loading and get the non-js redirect instead of the js functionality. Opening the like button in a new tab or otherwise going directly to the url linked...
You're right about Death sorry, I was thinking of Ghost Mages. But Psychic Projection (mind 4) opening paragraph before the description has:
which implies to my reading that like a ghost in Twilight, the psychic projection should be able to use magic on the material world.
I can't find a rule in any of my MtAw books and I think I've got the set.
Speculation:
I believe there is no universal rule because what actually can be done to something in twilight varies heavily. Psychic Projection (pg 215, Mind 4) talks about being subject to mind-affecting powers but...
As I understand:
QQ is nominally not hosting the images directly, but instead linking to the host. The idea is that gelbooru/imgchest/etc. are the ones that get sent the takedown request and QQ doesn't have to deal with it - this is why you're allowed to link to sites that honor dnp requests but...
It's pretty far out of the way (you have to go "Your Account" e.g. via Account Details on the dropdown, and then select Editor Playground from that list) but XF2 comes with a spot to do this

You can also just hit preview. If you...
Images inside the reply box are a direct link to the original image rather than QQ's embed. Refreshing that link inside tor browser enough times eventually found an exit which didn't get the captcha screen, and displayed the image - whereas logging into QQ and quoting the post from an IP that...
You probably shouldn't use a NSFW image as the example especially with an unflagged link and posting the image raw on a sfw page.
I assume this isn't something that's going to go away, boorus don't want to be used as CDNs. Whether it's blocked by cloudflare or referers, I feel like the link not...
Tags on QQ don't exist so you can witchhunt people with fetishes you don't like, they exist so that people who like those fetishes can find the story. If a story contains scat, and you don't like that, and the author doesn't want to tag for it, you have no recourse. They're in the right.
Like...
If there is a limit it's probably 1000. I've currently got 500-600 in the list.
Inside of threads and searches, ignore shouldn't cost the server anything. It seems to just impact the formatting; even without javascript if you load a page with ignored content the ignored content will still be...
Because Endless Space is a GSG rather than a 4X, fundamentally. What you're running into is the fundamental difference. Systems that mechanically penalize or limit expansion make something into Grand Strategy, 'true' 4X (e.g. MoO, dominions) you're always supposed to expand when able.
Of course...
One is a piracy site where the authors pretty much don't know that their work is up there.
The other strictly enforces that you're posting your own work (or have a note from the author) and broadly privileges authors to present their work however they want.
It's not really comparable. In...
