• 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.

When searching within a thread, and the dropdown is suggesting possible completions for who the post you're looking for was written by, the original poster of the thread ought to be much more heavily weighted. After all, they are (at least in a story or quest) the single most likely source for anything worth searching for.

(I do realise this is something staff of this forum are unlikely to be able to do anything about, beyond passing the idea to the source of the software.)
