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.
I'll be honest, I don't mind it so much. Sometimes it's fun to watch the heroes do a Conga Line on the villians. I suppose the difficulty could be turned up a tiny bit, but as Hannibal would say, "I love it when a plan comes together"
I would assume one of the functions of a subservience module would be to forbid removing the subservience module. Therefore the only reason QA was able to do so is because Zion turned it off.
That's what the shot of fear aura was for. Remember how he thought she turned it down to a low background fear? She actually turned it all the way off, that was his danger sense telling him to cut his losses and get out NOW.
Who's to say it isn't voice activated? I have an Alexa controlled lamp in my house, but it still has a physical switch. It's more convenient sometimes.
I passed on this initially because I wasn't sure I was interested in a fic where Taylor just goes around killing her problems. I was wrong. This is great.
There have been people with brain injuries who lose the ability to feel emotions. They develop a condition called decision paralysis. Given two equal choices, say between a red pen and a blue one, they cannot choose. Having a preference is an emotional response.
That's awful. We've already got people trying to use their free drink to buy 30 shots of espresso. I'm sorry sir, I can't in good conscience give that to you, I'm pretty sure you would go into cardiac arrest, and it wouldn't even taste good. By the time the last two were pulling, the first two...
I was hoping they'd be able to switch back. I'm not sure how much I would have enjoyed the both of them deciding they'd had a psychotic break and adjusting to their new lives.
Also great books, but someone actually found the one I was looking for and PMed me. It was Starwalker, but there are too many goddess-blessed things called Starwalker, so even though I tried that name, google was super unhelpful in finding it.
The one about the ship AI that was more alive than usual? For an experimental ship that could travel between gravity wells? I lost it and cannot find it!
