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.
So as it turns out the media imbed does work for images, at least for both reddit & X (formerly known as twitter) so it's possible to use that as a stopgap measure.
Another thing of note is that the media imbed feature still works as intended while it appears that it's the insert image that seems to be having issues.
The funny thing is that the original ending I had planned was a lot different:
That the protag, mentally broken from the fighting & scheming, simply gave up and allow himself to get shot by the soldiers on orders from those fat bastards... and then wakes up in "our" world, apparently having...
Coda: The fate as a traitor deserves… but we’re all traitors.
“So the demons left? Gone?” Lev asked, seemingly indifferent to the supposed world shattering horrific events that had just taken place. But then again, for a world that was supposedly always on the edge of the abyss, the actual end...

So, um, 4chan is down after being hacked some some group or another.
Press F to pay respects to that peaceful community.
Chapter 7: And so falls the forces of good. Good riddance.
There is something innately beautiful about fires, the hues of reds, oranges, yellows, and even the occasional hints of blues and greens dancing about. The crackling of wood and other materials as they’re consumed by the ever hungry...
Chapter 6.2: … and another traitor executed (as is tradition)
It was a place that Minaev never would have expected himself to be at. Not the part about being in a [open air] courtroom at the trial of a traitor, that he expected when he had made the decision of throwing his fate with that...
Did i just do a crossover with "i committed suicide in a world of simps and now I've been summoned by a spoiled princess and given the class {white knight}!?"?
Yes, and I don't give a damn. Bro can sue my ass after he gets around and write that shit.
--------------------------------------...
I guess my mistake is assuming that the tropes of a generic fantasy world is well known enough to leave a lot of stuff implied instead of explicitly stated.
So to explicitly state things:
Protag knows that as a traitor (and a big traitor at that), he's being portrayed as this demonic horror...
What do you mean? The punchline was the hentai trope where nuns get raped on trumped up charges (which is implied to be what happened, was too lazy to write out all the dory details). The protag was simply leaning on the ingrained prejudice of the world to do the actual dirty work.
But baiting...
Chapter 5: Perception is reality
“Not a great reception.” Alex quipped, looking at the angry and agitated group of people- nuns specifically, gathered in front of the warband.
“Were you expecting anything different?” Омич noted dryly. “We- you all are traitors and scoundrels.” He continued...
