• The site has now migrated to Xenforo 2. If you see any issues with the forum operation, please post them in the feedback 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.

I've got ADHD so I tend to read multiple posts in sorta parallel as my attention on one post wanes I switch to another post and read part of it before moving on to another and eventually coming around and finishing off the first but when I end up using the +Quote feature in multiple threads that way it becomes tricky to separate them out so only the ones meant for that thread get posted to that thread because there is no way to select 'only add these to this message and save the rest for later'

Partial workaround (emphasis on partial):

  1. Use the insert quotes button.
  2. Use the "rearrange these quotes" popup to group the quotes based on what thread they're from.
  3. Copy the quotes that belong in another thread (the "BB code" mode may be useful for this)...
  4. ...and paste them to the thread they belong in. The QQ "save draft" feature saves drafts for up to 24 hours on a per-thread basis.
You can even build up quotes this way for a while, which I've done before.
