  • An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.
  • 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.

  1. Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    Ah, you were trying to stop the whole time? My bad; I forget not everyone likes arguing as much as me, hahaha! Not responding isn't rude, we aren't having a face-to-face conversation, you know? Insert "Just Walk Out" meme. Quitting the argument is like 50% of the best part. It's been nice...

  2. Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    Made by my brother, John? :V At this point I have to assume I'm either making an error in communication I can't detect, or you're deliberately misunderstanding what I'm saying on purpose, deliberately. Are you seriously suggesting that copyright law is the reason poverty exists? Again, is...

  3. Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    At best copyright makes everyone besides creatives starve? Now you've completely lost me, lol. I guess I don't know for certain that copyright law applies to foreign publishers? Because I haven't looked into it? But I can't imagine why it wouldn't, so that feels like grasping at straws. I...

  4. Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    Sure, that's an okay way to think of it, although reducing my situation down to just "[Poverty]" seems a little... callous? I don't really like that, tbh; at least humanize me a LITTLE bit. There's a person behind the screen, y'know? But it doesn't really change the fact that, so long as I DO...

  5. Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    If the existing copyright system didn't exist, I would've gotten NOTHING. If I hadn't owned the copyright, we would've had NO legal justification to sue, the same as if you tried to sue JKR for publishing Harry Potter, for example. In fact, they'd probably fine you for wasting the court's time...

  6. Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    I am intimately familiar with the copyright system. It DOES do good. A couple lifetimes ago (about 7 years), I was living in a place where there was no work—as in, ZERO work. I didn't have enough money to leave, and I was so far in the middle of nowhere that walking somewhere to find work...

  7. Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    "My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Anyways, the publisher always got super anal about that kinda thing, but I never really cared about fan translations. If some kid wants to poorly translate my book into Russian to make some pocket money, have at...

  8. [RWBY] The Great Temporal Step-Sibling War!

    it was their theoretical physicist friend, doctor weena nebogipfel. what I want to know, did ozpin just randomly have a child with someone we've never seen before? OR does he die, get reincarnated in her, and then get knocked up by jaune?? i certainly know which is funnier. :D

  9. [RWBY] The Great Temporal Step-Sibling War!

    like tolstoy said: war, what is it good for!

  10. QQ on Fire?!

    i literally don't remember how to change it. i kinda wanna see what it looks like on fire ._. edit: never mind, this is hilarious lmao

  11. A Celestial Forge on Remnant

    generally speaking, "intelligence" is possessing a lot of discrete knowledge and being able to rapidly recall it, as well as use it to adapt to new situations ("raw intelligence" is also good at explaining complicated concepts simply). the reason that writing characters smarter than you isnt...
