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.
The story is pretty good so far, but did the MC forget that the Lannister goldmine hasn't produced gold for years and is flooded? I mean, the MC either watched the show or read the books of this story and so should know this?
Honestly it would not be the first time for stupid lawsuits. And yes, I also consider it a stupid lawsuit but unfortunately that is just how laws work. But consider that an original character in a fanfic of one author, gets used by someone else in another (being rather sarcastic here)...
Even if it is a fanfic, the author may not own the universe their story is in, they may not own many of the characters in the story. But anything original in that story belongs to them: Original characters, Original settings, Original plotlines as well as that particular original fanfic story...
I am not a lawyer, but I did become very familiar with them and court systems through my life due to actions outside of my control that I was dragged into. Plus I am also currently writing my own story which is not published anywhere and have researched things in order to protect my own...
