We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
QuestionableQuesting has new Moderator positions. To submit your application, please see this thread.
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.
Hello. I'm having a disagreement with someone over whether 0-post members can view the member-only fora (e.g. NSFW Creative Writing, Rants). I'm pretty sure they used to be able to, which is why QQ has so many 0-post members compared to SB/SV.
Has this changed?
No, you don't need to make a post to read the NSFW boards. You need one to do almost anything else, but not that. QQ has zillions of zero-post members precisely because they just want access to the NSFW boards.
We've had at least one example of a guy killing himself due to GPT driving him (more) psychotic to get better ratings.
Hacking me personally sight unseen via art or (especially) stories made for someone else is probably out of reach for the moment. But I would much rather avoid taking...
Mods can put a tag on a thread, and if they do the thread creator can't remove it.
I will note that there are people who are trying to avoid AI output for various reasons, some of them philosophical and some pragmatic*, and not making the disclosure mandatory makes QQ unsafe for these people...
You: "THERE ARE OVER 426,877 THOUSAND YEARS LEFT IN KALI YUGA!"
WP: "Lasting for 432,000 years (1,200 divine years), Kali Yuga began 5,126 years ago and has 426,874 years left as of 2025 CE."
426,874 << 426,877,000.
And if Jaina hadn't abandoned him, not only would she have not traumatised him even more beyond what Stratholme already did, but she could have helped him through it - and noticed that IT'S A TRAP, thus potentially averting the entire plot of WC3 (and Azeroth has never recovered from that, AIUI).
I suspect I've got an actual value disagreement with the authors, because there's a definite feeling of "this guy's gone nuts" at Stratholme when really Arthas was the only person in that conversation who wasn't living in a fantasy. His first mistake was going to Northrend and his first sin was...
Arthas can't really be blamed for fucking up when literally the entire Human Campaign of WC3 is one giant psy-op to traumatise him enough to take up Frostmourne, and when he had to go through it basically alone.

Poor Arthas. One thing that really strikes me about WC3 is how incredibly foolish and catastrophic was... Jaina's decision to abandon Arthas at Stratholme.
L from Death Note and Yang Wenli from Ginga Eiyu Densetsu are pretty close to "wishywashy sarcastic MC". Japan also totally deports people - it just hasn't AFAIK had a period of *not* deporting anyone to build up a backlog.
Unless there's a Scion-equivalent "best at everything", this is definitely a cheat power. Probably also leads to keeping a dungeon full of captured "best in world"s, as killing them would cause the cheater to scale down to be the new second-best at that thing.
The superpower of being the second-best at everything. Everything. Second-best at punching in the world. Second-most durable in the world. Second-best at each specific type of magic in the world. Second-best at social-fu in the world. Second-best at planning in the world.
