• An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.
  • We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
  • Our mod selection process has completed. Please welcome our new moderators.
  • 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.

    Forum is messing up what day (of the week) it is

    So, you know how the forum lists posts as being "X minutes ago", then "Today at X", then "Yesterday at X", then "[day of the week] at X" for the past week, then by date? Well, the "[day of the week] at X" stage is fucked up at the moment. Specifically, it's calculating the day of the week by...

    Question - Is there any way of disabling the quote/reply popup when highlighting text

    I mean, I think the only way to do it internal to QQ is to trick the site into thinking you're on a mobile (I recall that having a touch-screen active can do it). External to QQ, though... well, the popups are JavaScript, so killing JavaScript in your browser will get rid of them (QQ still...

    Balancing Like with Dislike

    That's because it's not in the search function. It's under "Filters" when viewing a board.

    Balancing Like with Dislike

    You can sort threads by like count of first post. Might be new with XF2.

    Balancing Like with Dislike

    It didn't remove its dislike button. It just removed the ability for you to see how many dislikes something has, presumably because viewers making their own decisions based on that information was bad for watch-time statistics (naughty user, making decisions for yourself! Obey the algorithm, peon!).

    General World of Darkness Discussion Thread QQ Edition

    Was there ever a clarification in VtR 1e as to whether Wassailing vampires who start drinking from another vampire are forced to commit diablerie? This seems like an extremely-important detail, but I didn't see any mention of it in the corebook or The Blood. There's a mention that diablerie's...

    General World of Darkness Discussion Thread QQ Edition

    Hrm. Okay, so I suspect what happened here is that somebody on GiantITP saw this: ...read "coolness" into it when it wasn't actually there, and then mentioned it in the nWoD thread there. Since I'd already explicitly seen White Wolf pull this shit with Scion (three-die stunt = 1 XP), I didn't...

    General World of Darkness Discussion Thread QQ Edition

    Well, I haven't read 2e, so I didn't know that. (I know there's stunting, and XP for stunting. That was all I needed to hear to know I would never be playing it, because my sense of "cool" is different to most people's and as such XP for stunting = I will eventually strangle the GM.)

    General World of Darkness Discussion Thread QQ Edition

    Is it just me, or is 1e Werewolf: the Forsaken a bit underpowered compared to the other splats in the lategame? - A lot of werewolves' power doesn't really "scale". Forms are pretty static; yes, you eventually graduate from Urshul to Gauru to Primal, but Primal's only somewhat better than...

    Automatically concatenate posts without intervening users.

    Okay, apparently XF2 fixed it. Objection withdrawn.

    Automatically concatenate posts without intervening users.

    One issue with editing posts (as opposed to double-posting) is that quoting someone in a new post sends an alert, but editing in a quote, TTBOMK, does not. Until/unless this behaviour is changed, banning double-posting causes issues.

    >why not report the mods >Never mind, obvious answer To be clear, in both cases there was explicit backing from the top - I appealed one of the SB infractions all the way up to the Admins, and some of the SV ones were from co-owner Ford Prefect himself. And, well, purging one's own forum of...
