• 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.

    Rule 8 question

    If it’s a joke about current politics, it’s current politics, so it’s Rule 8.

    Scheduled quest votes timing out too quickly

    Did this happen 7 hours and ~42 minutes ago? Because the server restarted itself around then, which might have caused it.

    Is there ever going to be an app for this site?

    I'm somewhat doubtful. You can search for tags, though, without an app, and QQ has internal bookmarks, which you could probably use to 'favourite' fics. Do those do what you want it to?

    Is there a limit to how many people we can ignore?

    Only admins can check that kind of thing directly, and, as far as I can tell, none of them have ever stated a number. With some cautious testing (only Ignoring lurkers), it seems to be more than 50, at least, so it might still be the hardcoded XenForo limit of 1,000. Relevant commentary: If...

    Suggestion: A button next to the Like that lets readers express if they think the chapter is AI written

    I find all variations of 'if they're angry about being accused of [bad thing], they probably did it' deeply suspect. If you put a lot of care and effort into something, and someone responds to that with ‘did a machine write this for you’, or the more confident ‘a machine wrote this for you’...

    Oh, forgot to reply to this. No, that isn’t happening. Sorry.

    Problem with the "Open Voting" option and voting schedule system

    Ultima updated the add-ons some hours ago, so this should probably be fixed.

    Question about Forum Courtesy

    You can ask when the next update is going to be. We mostly hit that when someone posts it in a thread where it's been over a month since the last reply, as that violates Rule 7, but, for dead threads, you can still ask on the authors profile or in a PM. Whether it's rude or not, or how any...

    A messages question

    Not that I can see. Even going back to the URL I used to load the Conversation, it just returns 'The requested conversation could not be found'. Probably, if there were other participants in that Conversation, you'll just have to ask for an invite again. If you were the only participant, I'd...

    Site running abnormally slow

    Haven’t had any problems since New Year’s Day, weirdly. Hope that’s the new normal.

    Tag Voting

    I think tag requests, as I’ve seen them in the wild on QQ, tend to come from a kind of adversarial place. A user reads some percentage of the story, comes across an element they dislike, and they suggest adding a relevant tag so they (and everyone else) know it’s there in advance. It’s kinda...

    Tag Voting

    …you Liked my post, where I asked people not to fight, and then you proceeded to continue the fight. Why would you do that? I didn't use mod-colour last time, so let's try this again. If you continue, I will ban you from your own thread. The same goes for anyone else. Any further posts should...

    Tag Voting

    Let’s not fight, yeah? We aren’t going to do enforced tagging. We may or may not do something regarding suggested tagging. We are going to do some tag consolidation, eventually. That’s the state of things right now.

    Site running abnormally slow

    QQ doesn't use CloudFlare, which is why we weren't affected when every site that did (including SB/SV) went down recently. We do use a different server host to SB/SV (whereas they use the same one), so when they were down due to water damage, we were unaffected.

    Site running abnormally slow

    So, keeping in mind I'm very much not a tech guy: Doing a general speed test for my connection right now has me at 328 Mbps download and 32 Mbps download, 27 ms latency, and 2 ms jitter. These seems fine, from a quick lookup of those terms, but gets worse if I use an American VPN, degrading to...

    Site running abnormally slow

    Same. Think I got a proper 504 error, earlier. Can have a go checking measurable metrics after I finish watching this movie.

    Notification suggesting password change

    You were probably surprised by this because you don't usually log out, but you were last night for some unrelated reason, and so got the notification you'd get every time you logged in with that password. By 'a lot', I count 19 in the past week; not sure whether that's high or low in relative...

    Notification suggesting password change

    Not that I can see; we'd have Muted you if you'd posted anything spammy. Not sure if anything was done on the backend to flag common passwords and log out those who possess them, as there has been a lot of compromised accounts lately.
