• A notice about Rule 3 regarding sites hosting pirated/unauthorized content has been made. Please see here for details.
  • Staff is working to deal with the problem of synonymous tags. See here for more information and to suggest tag mergers.
  • QQ will have forum downtime on October 21, starting at 10:00 AM Eastern time, for software updates.
  • 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.

    NSFW, RSS and Login Verification

    I set a Claude Code session on this, and this was its diagnosis: As expected, unrelated to logins. Hopefully this has done enough of the work that it can be fixed without understanding RSS. I'm a programmer, and it looks like enough to me, but I've never been a web admin, let alone forum...

    NSFW, RSS and Login Verification

    Why not use multiple email accounts? I have two that I use heavily, a third that's a backup, and five more that sign up for things I don't want to be bothered about unless I open it on purpose. And they split my identity pretty strictly - all my NSFW account signups, and some other 'definitely...

    In one hundred percent of my interactions with non-Earthlings, yes, yes I do.

    NSFW, RSS and Login Verification

    Email notifications don't really work. Not, like, QQ is doing them wrong, just, using email for notifications mostly does not work to notify me. I don't check my email enough, there's too much in my inbox to catch things, and anything that shows up frequently (especially, like in this case...

    NSFW, RSS and Login Verification

    I did, long ago; it doesn't help. Only works if you remember to check the forum without prompting. I don't; RSS is the way I keep track of everything that periodically has something new. (Except chatrooms, and I don't remember to check most of those all that often.) There's a lot of people here...

    NSFW, RSS and Login Verification

    I've been following With This Ring (not NSFW) by RSS for years, and it has entirely broken this month. I tried reconnecting to the threadmark RSS, and that got a new set of 10 entries but immediately stopped working. Both subscriptions were to...

    Head full of ghosts of the old world, and they're not half as well-behaved as Haunter's mob.

    going to the hospital Unfortunately, fraternity membership is not required to become a frat boy. Nor even college attendance, though that helps a lot. And here I thought "'stupid' is a slur" was the worst take I'd ever hear on the subject. Most insults are not slurs, you ninny.

    Remove the bold, I think. This would have made sense if the previous sentence included 'damage anything' so I assume it was edited later.

    There's a joke Greek Orthodox like to tell: Catholics think that the difference between Catholics and Orthodox is the filioque. Orthodox know that the difference is that Catholics think that the difference is the filioque. The point is that Orthodox have a different philosophy (specifically...

    Mormons claim direct ongoing revelation and that they were born outside and before the universe and chose to enter. They're at deast as heterodox the Gnostics and look where that one ended up.

    Hitting each other in the head with Nth metal? Just another day's work. Having to get therapized? By a woman who can sense lies? That's a violation of the Geneva Conventions, that is.

    As of 2006 (politics limit) and 2010 (point of divergence) the law on the books was Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 which is very confusing (melded a half-dozen prior laws together? may not have contained anything new?) but, IIUC, requires a review every seven years. I don't believe they...

    You know Harrison Bergeron? Krono had a loudspeaker playing static noise only he could hear making him stupid. They broke the speaker. He's un-handicapped now.
