• 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.

    This is getting ridiculous

    Of note, this is already a thing, we just don’t deny any tags. Here’s a thread where this issue was previously discussed. Anyway, locking.

    Rule 8 Question

    Had to double check, but I'm pretty sure you didn't mention that name. You did mention 'K.S.', which I suppose is Klaus Schwab then? Idk, readers can only see the written text, not the thoughts in your mind. I'd advise against playing games with regard to how many identifying characteristics...

    Rule 8 Question

    Was wondering for a second whether I'd accidentally volunteered myself for a lot of work, but luckily the word count wasn’t too much. Those are fine. In general, as long as you aren't explicitly using actual current political figures, we don't care what you put in stories. It's the discussion...

    Rule 8 Question

    Without the specific content you want to post in front of me, I can’t say for sure, but both of those links you provided seem full of stuff that wouldn’t be okay to post, so…

    [Introduction Thread] 'Sup All

    The 'Thread tools' dropdown menu- -should have an option to 'Add threadmark index', and you should be able to threadmark a specific post by clicking the '…' button beneath a post: Quoting a time I explained this previously: Though that 'Drop image' option might not be available on all devices.

    Balancing Like with Dislike

    ...I'd personally be able to do anything with (not tech-y). Edit: Here's where they posted the latest code. — Regarding awarding/gilding posts, *shrugs*, I don't know much about it (aside from it seeming similar to Reddit's thing), but I don't think I'd be against it. I'm definitely not...

    Balancing Like with Dislike

    Speaking as a regular user, a dislike button would noticeably worsen my QQ experience. Speaking as a mod, it would likely cause many headaches. Silver summed up my attitude exactly.

    General chat thread

    You could create a thread in the Suggestions & Bugs subforum with your problem. Can’t help personally, not very tech-y, but a few people that are frequent there.

    Sequels and Rule 7

    That's fine, go ahead. Notifying the thread of a sequel’s existence would count as a significant contribution even if you weren't the OP, and, from my understanding, Rule 7 doesn't really apply to OPs anyway.

    You can change it by posting in any thread - I'd suggest Introductions though it isn't required. That'll change it to the next Messages title, but once you've got at least one post approved, your account will become fully activated, so you'll be able to change it to whatever in your account details.

    It’s a title relating to your (forum-proper) Messages count.

    Suggestion: why is it not possible to do a search of your Watched Threads list?

    Top left dropdown menu -> ‘Forums’ dropdown menu -> 'Watched threads'. Tell me if there's still confusion, and I'll provide pictures.

    Potential Rule 8 Question: Regarding the Recent Anti-NSFW Content Bans...

    Source We've been giving this thread quite a bit of leeway with regards to Rule 8, due to how relevant the subject matter is to QQ as a site. That does not mean that Rule does not exist here, however: We don't like having to keep repeating ourselves. I'll be putting up a threadbanner, so...

    Suggestion: Enforce correct tagging.

    Xon. I think new features generally go from SV -> SB -> QQ, based on the respective closeness of Xon to each site (the prior two they use as test beds), though QQ doesn't bother with getting everything SV/SB does.

    Suggestion: Enforce correct tagging.

    Mods are generally normal users, who before they volunteered for the job enjoyed participating in various aspects of the forum, including discussions. That they're now staff doesn't mean they agreed to stop doing any of that, and, if that were a requirement, I'd personally become somewhat...

    Automatically concatenate posts without intervening users.

    Not sure whether this is even technically feasible, but if it is, there should be some checkbox when posting to manually stop that from happening. There are reasons why you might want to separate consecutive posts, like if one is an omake, informational, or what-have-you, and the other is a...

    Questions about unwritten rules

    Not speaking for the whole moderation team here - I’m still very new - but: From what I’ve seen, we don’t punish people for roleplaying like they’re too cool for school, we just don’t show them much, if any, leniency when deciding what punishments we give them for actually punishment-worthy...
