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.

Finally just went down in person to talk to someone when I had a minute... The entrance was blocked off and I had to find my way through another entrance through the building, but thankfully they had multiple 'Go This Way' signs posted.
Filed paperwork, now am just pensively waiting to see what...
Me: "Given the whole month is typically so much... It's going to be like $50 more than I expect, probably."
Bill upon arrival: "How about actually an extra 200+ motherfucker."
Hah. Hahaha. ... I'm going to have to figure something for that out.
I... can't say that strikes a bell, thinking about it. I have written monster protagonists, native and reincarnated, but I don't think they had those specific setting details?
Patch of lawn dug up, shit examined, old-ass pipe taken off and now patiently waiting for a return with new pipe to slap on and hopefully resolve the problem.
At which point my only remaining issue is that since the break was on my side, whoops, that's definitely going to be reflected in the...
Guy from the utility company swung by, cut the valve off and checked, break is somewhere on our side.
Which means now we wait on landlord's people to arrive.
Yesterday: "Huh, water pressure is a little low. Oh well, that happens sometimes."
