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.

'heat vision', I believe.
And today we learned that on Earth-16 there's penguins in the Arctic!
(Joking aside, if you wanted actual native arctic birds, the Thick-billed Murre would be reasonable.)
Yeah, that tracks. The GLC are Space Cops, and thus their 'no killing' policy, but Hal was Air Force and John Stewart was a Marine. They're not gonna question the judgement of the Lantern on the scene, even if he's wearing a funny color.
Even Justice Lords Batman was the one who came around and turned on them.
...but it's worth remembering that that required reaching the point to come around from.
And also that Owlman is an alternate Batman.
