• 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.

    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.

    Lazy image loading error

    Btw, I'm not sure why I didn't connect them, but this is almost certainly related to these two threads: https://forum.questionablequesting.com/threads/site-running-abnormally-slow.35979/ https://forum.questionablequesting.com/threads/mobile-issues.36076/ Aleth did some tech wizardry a couple of...

    Clicking on QQ links lead to Log In Screen.

    There's, like, two QQs, for some reason, though I can't remember what the exact difference is in the URLs. If you're logged into one, but not the other, links to the one you're not logged into behind the wall will result in it asking you to log in (as you see). I imagine logging in once more...

    Lazy image loading error

    I don't know if this solution will work for you, but when the images in spoilers are failing to load for me (but they aren’t broken), I close the spoiler, reopen it, and basically repeat that till it loads fully.

    Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    Hacked accounts posted spam with dodgy links, so the posts were deleted.

    alethiophile or ultima333, is this something you could help with?

    rule 7 question

    It’s, ah, necromancy. Like, raising the dead. Not necrophilia. Though, your metaphor also kinda works… Anyway, the rule of thumb is whether it’s substantial new content, not a continuance of previous discussion, or commentary on current chapters. This could be a multi-paragraph omake, fanart...

    Does this Board have an official language is English board rule like SB?

    As long as a user follows the biggest unofficial-official rule, which is 'obey mod directives', there's not likely to be much of a problem, practically. We do plan to add (at least some of) the unofficial-official rules, at some undetermined future date, but I wouldn't expect that to be anytime...

    Does this Board have an official language is English board rule like SB?

    Nah, we do require you to post in English. It’s too difficult to moderate otherwise. We should really have it in the rules…
