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.
Threadmarks: CH 5: Self Care, a Dramatic Spar, and the Friendly Fire Kunai
"Am I pretty?" She can't help but ask herself while looking in the mirror. Dull eyes have turned colorful and vibrant, looking right back at her like little gems. The bags under her eyes are gone, her skin has cleaned up, even her forehead looks less big with giant bags no longer such a big part...
Threadmarks: CH 4: Her first D-Rank mission, and Discoveries are Made
She's practically vibrating when she arrives at the training ground at seven, it's the fateful Monday where she'll prove she really is wide eyed and bushy tailed and nothing can stop her. Which is odd, because before this gaming system she never woke up before noon without feeling like hell...
Threadmarks: CH 3: The World while Awake, and a Prophesy is Foretold.
A week passes in relative silence.
Gaming during the day, trying to sleep during the night. It's difficult, incredibly difficult, and despite his orders not to train she does it anyway.
Strength has increased to 31, for reaching Genin Strength, you have unlocked the "Genin Strength" trait...
Threadmarks: CH 2: Heavy Emotions are Felt, and Sakura is given an elite solo mission: Sleep
Gonna bolt through a lot of the first chapters because the Patreon doesn't have anything before chapter 12 and therefore I can't even link it until then. I'll be going back to edit the link in earlier after that point.
Smile.
"I have failed every single student that has taken the bell test...
1. I'm going to ignore almost any and all negativity, this story is over a year old and I've been there, done that. I'm over it. Enjoy the story and smile. A lot of criticisms aren't even relevant because I have grown greatly as a writer since starting the story.
2. This story is in several SFW...
Threadmarks: The Start of an Adventure, now if only she was awake for it.
Finally cross posting this story. It's been a huge part of my life for over a year but it's always felt awkward not having it on here, even if it's not in the main section because it's 100% SFW.
QQ is my home, and if nothing else it should at least be here even if no one reads it. Have fun...
Lowering my Comm price to 2.0 for the next two weeks, Limit 10K to each customer. Payments must be secure and sent before the 5th of August for it to count. That's $40 for 2000 words.
I am running commissions still.
I even lowered my price. Not subscribestar though, that got closed by site administrators. Fixed.
And yes I can go add it, I wasn't aware it wasn't threadmarked, I bet there's a few like that from early in when I was still learning the system.
That panic freezes their limbs cold, fries their brain, leaves them questioning their options. Yet when they dare to look up, just a little, they're caught by a realization they hadn't yet considered. Maybe they're in less danger than they presumed, and perhaps the darkened side of the room...
Their eyes widen, pinned to the artificially hardened floor by a sudden mass they're sure wasn't there this morning, a stroke of panic flows through them.
"Where did I put that broom?" The witch ponders, idly fiddling with slimy ingredients in an attempt to perfect a potent new invention they're not quite sure what they'll call.
"Mew" They hear from the darker side of the room they largely ignore under threat of machinations beyond their desire...
