The issue with logging in with email addresses has been resolved.
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.
A few of the other mods such as @Biigoh, @TotalAbsolutism, and @Megaolix have also recently been given access to some of those tools. They also might be able to help you.
@ultima333 @alethiophile and @tehelgee are the site admins, though tehelgee isn't particularly active these days. If they still haven't gotten to you after the ping I sent them about it, you can try posting on one of their profiles like you posted on mine.
Every time I see your PFP, I start by going "man, that's a nice picture" and then spiral immediately down to "WTF is with her right arm being so short, it ruins the whole thing." :V
The SFW section is actually the more specialized one here, and the one that gets less traffic. Even if you just want your readers to be able to discuss NSFW things or post NSFW artwork and such, you typically want to post it in NSFW. Because the divide is for the whole thread, not just your...
>Man quotes my first sentence out of context, then snobbishly repeats half of each of my own points back to me as if it's a rebuttal.
Seriously, the only difference is that you were flavoring them with a thinly veiled standard set of Rule 7 salt. If this is the way things are gonna go, it might...
Just to make sure that there's nobody else getting confused, the part in the parentheses is very important there for how the rule settled.

It was rather silly, I agree. Not quite the level of "I'll sabotage the people I disagree with by claiming to actually hold a strawman argument as my position!" levels of silly, because I can sadly believe that someone would actually go where they did unironically. But silly enough that it does...
It's only been a mess, rather than a problematic mess, so there's been no real reason to shut it down yet. If you want it closed, there's always the option of lighting the thread on fire and throwing yourself upon the flames. Wouldn't recommend it, but it exists.
The duplicate translations thing, it should be noted, was not "the reason this happened." It was the trigger that got the rest of the staff to finally pay attention after a long while of a few of us regularly bringing it up, and it being ignored or put off for the umpteenth time. Which still...
I'm pretty certain you've gotten very heavily rabbit-holed into arguing something that you likely don't even believe, at this point. When the thread started, you were making sound and reasonable arguments. Not ones I agreed with, but they were at least a sane position to be taking. Now you're...
