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.

Are there Civet's in your region? and are you storing an unreasonable amount of decaf? As far as I know you need both of those as ingredients to make coffee craving zombies. Someone attempted to use them to harass coffee plantations a while back, but one of the plantation owners was already...
Sounds fishy to me, animals are always drained of blood when butchered. Also raw meat is very rare, because humans are not made for eating raw food. Out digestive system is highly dependent on cooking, both for meat and vegetables.
There is no single chinese language, there are actually dozens of them that use a common set of logograms for writing. The official transliterations usually come from orientalists during the 1800s and are long overdue for replacement.
Sears only declined because they missed the fact that the mail order catalogue business model was going to be place with online ordering business model. If they hadn't missed that transition, it is very likely Amazon would not exist.
Its murder is not based on clinical death, its based on legal death (dead and gone). This means it would be attempted murder. There is plenty of legal precedent with the resuscitation of someone who was clinically dead (heart stopped, etc) even in RL, even with parahuman shenanigans that would...
In the US murder requires permanent death. So this would get reduced to attempted murder (which would likely have been part of the case as a lesser included charge).
I just realized that Ruggedizer actually has the tinker power perfect for making a ClF3 Flame thrower. The only problem with weaponizing that is getting it to not destroy whatever you deploy it with.
This is a very common misconception. The closest thing to a genocide of the Aztecs was the Native allies taking revenge, which is completely reasonable given the generations of human sacrifice and cannibalism they had suffered. The Conquistadors actually tried to stop the attacks on civilians...
Also, small nations can be transient powers, see Portugal. They had a massive colonial Empire for some time, but as soon as colonialism died they faded from relevance.
Small nations positioned on good trade routes have the potential to grow like British Empire did. You just need to give them a decent iron deposit, otherwise they can't really support themselves in a war passed neolithic era. Bronze requires two different metals that don't form deposits near...
I love how wholesome Tanya's misunderstanding field is in this fic. She got snape out of rut with the Drama club and Dumbledore is so happy that he gets more opportunities to play grandfather with his students.
