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.

Things calmed down immensely, no drama, no random returnee causing trouble, just people living their lives. Still was returnees and in some of the more strange cases, reincarnation from other worlds into this one. Mass Effect Universe humanity was making full on massive...

Someone did something unexpected. I was making rounds a few days ago and got the other aspects of religions that would let me have them. However I got taken away from my mystical adventure as someone did something unexpected.
Someone opened a Well on Earth. Or well, made one. In...

I had started to financially recover from my fight with the cultivator. I had basically spent millions of dollars in a four hour total fight. Maybe even more if the conversion rates I see online are right. Getting paid monthly at the moment by the government, partially in HCE...

I slammed through stone as the energy field covering my avatar struggled to keep it intact.
I sighed as I stood up on the asteroid I finally stopped moving on. Looking up my combat augments triggered, locating my foe.
A Level 5 HCE Human, from a Cultivation World. They had managed to...

Back in the star wars universe. We were over one of the many planets on the Inner Rim. Why? Cause they wanted to test a HCE user against a Jedi. I’d be taking on one of the Jedi today on world.
“Is Jackson sure about this?” Jered asked one of the...

“So this is the Processing World?” I asked out loud as I walked around. Jered walked next to me, as well as a dozen soldiers. My escort.
“Yep, billions of people from destroyed worlds are being processed daily.” Jered leaned on the guard rail with me as we stood on the cliffside...

We went from not opening any gates, to opening dozens. We were visiting every apocalypse world we have on tape and rescuing the populace across the worlds. These are mainly worlds where everyone was destined to die, for example from the sun exploding, the arrival of eternal winter...

A look on the map shows humanity spreading out in a non-uniform pattern in all directions. Surprisingly the most common direction was to what I would call the northern hemisphere of the galaxy. We had to develop a compass spell that would always point the same direction. If you...
Threadmarks: Snippets from In The Universe - Update 13
“Danny, you there?”
Blinking, Danny looked away from the window. “Yeah, I’m I’m just taking it all in.” He was on the light cruiser the named the Ball Cruiser with friends.
“Well, you ready to play some DND?” Another guy walked into the hallway where he was looking out the window.
“Yeah. I...

The momentum from HCE has not stopped rolling. The Player Program was incredibly cheap to get into for civilian use. You could even add combat grade modifications to your program if you needed. They were starting to expand into space. You had full on guilds you would find in video...

The Internet behaves like a reddit mod. Or atleast, that is the closest comparison I have for them. Not quite young, but not quite mature. They don't even have reddit here. But with a bit of asking I was able to get some scans of its source code via a modified scanner. I didn't...

The project, or prototype design went through twenty iterations till it was complete. Well, the prototype for it. The project was taken off my hands again, they were about to assign something new to me, but then I said no. They didn’t take my response happily, my ‘handlers’. But I...

I had a prototype Eezo drive. Will admit. I cheated heavily. I designed a spell that I could cast that basically scanned and spit out data about the Eezo. With that I gathered data on just exactly how it is supposed to work. Then I made a spell that allows me to figure out exactly...

The new President is in office and things are going alright. The Libertarian Candidate won and is doing a load of drawbacks on some of the limits put on practicing HCE, as well removing several other limitations on the common man. I haven’t talked with him yet. I just send reports of...
