1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

    'Select and quote' doesn't work for me in thread reader mode. Works fine in the standard thread view.
    Is it a bug or a feature?

    Reader mode is just for reading... so no quote or reply function

    A pop-up (or lack thereof) upon text selection doesn't interfere with reading at all, but its inaccessibility in reader mode adds a few unnecessary motions when commenting on multiple threadmarked posts.

    You gotta talk to the admins like tehelgee or alethiophile to see about that.

    We've got the same behavior on SB and (last I checked) SV, which probably means it would have to go upstream. Which iirc will ultimately mean Xon. On the other hand I agree with this complaint on all three, maybe we could take it up on one of the others? (Assuming that hasn't been done already, which I do not recall.)

    I've also noticed it on SV (I don't use SB at all), and thought it was probably by design. I don't like it either, but I hardly ever use reader mode in the first place, so to me it doesn't really matter that much (though if the option was added I might consider using reader mode more often).
