• 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.

Is QQ at risk of being Age Verified?

Yes. The mod team has secretly been working on an ai tool that will comb through user's posts and determine what age users actually are through their vernacular and lexicon.
Any jokes like "6 7" or to much usage of terms like; bet, cap, bussin, or lowkey, will instantly be noticed and be used to identify you as possibly under 18 and thus requiring further age verification.

This is a joke.
 
This was asked before, the answer remains the same "no"

QuestionableQuesting is not hosted in the UK - as such, it is not immediately subject to the UK's Online Safety Act.
While the OSA does add stipulations for some non-UK based sites, these are for sites that have a "Link to the UK"

1. The service has a significant amount of UK users
- We are small enough that we fall outside of all of the major categorizations, which start at the hundreds of thousands of UK users- we hardly have 100k Daily Active Users period, and the UK residents are far and away from the majority here.

2. The service has UK users as a target market
- QuestionableQuesting has no revenue stream outside of user donations- we do not run advertisements, we do not charge users for features, and we do not sell licensed or official merchandise (that one year's April fool's joke was a 'design your own' mug/bottle site).

3. The service poses a material risk of harm to UK users
- They do provide a list of what they consider illegal harms, and it's stuff that is already against the rules of the site and covered by existing United States law (where we are hosted). We don't host such content.


As such, we have no plans to make any configuration nor rules changes for the UK Online Safety Act.
Or as some might say: "Bollocks to that, now get back to wanking."

I was wondering with all the talk of age verification if QQ was currently being affected?

No, for the simple reason that all of the porn is hidden behind a paywall and the site is hosted outside of the UK. Given that the UK government can't even manage to enforce age verification on actual porn sites, it has zero chance of enforcing it on QQ.
