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.
Huuuuh. Would Kimimaro stay alive for that long without Orochimaru's super genius medical stuff? Given that we know he was dying? Or do we inject him with handwavium and just ignore it?
It's founded on the assumption that it's an incurable acquired disease, rather than something congenital...and he didn't get it in or before the cave prison thing.
Another thought: A still nomadic clan of Ninjas with the bloodline of 'Dividuality'. They possess the power to remotely link multiple brains (provided that both possess the bloodline) and create new mental facets to separately guide the bodies, though no one personality is tied to a specific body. These networks are composed, typically, of a group of blood related bodies, with new ones being linked as they're born.
They don't exist as a massive clan wide hivemind of bodyswapping intelligences only because the networks get ludicrously loud and overcrowded with more than six or seven people in them. To combat this, they split off excess minds and bodies in a way that tends to create new networks. Techniques to make the networks more structured and less noisy have been developed by some, though.
