• An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.
  • We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
  • Our mod selection process has completed. Please welcome our new moderators.
  • 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.

    Of course you did not, you used gmail. Anyway, set to valid.

    Sorry to bug you, but should i refrain from using gmail for anything pertaining to this site
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    It does seem gmail does not want to receive QQ emails. If that matters to you, you probably want to change that.
    Hi, sorry to bug.

    Question: how long does account approval usually take? I have been waiting just over a month, but have not seen anything yet. Have I missed a step somewhere?

    You missed the message that gmail is not a good idea. Anyway, set you as valid.

    Hi, sorry to bother you, but how do I change my email? I looked around some threads and one of them said that I shouldn't use gmail, and so I went to try to change my email address to something else but it won't let me. I also didn't get an activation email. Any response is good.

    Hello i made an account but didn't receive a verification email, could you please verify my account?
    So with a recent update I can't get on normally and am trying to verify my email which I think is the problem. As any link to the site isn't working for me. Problem is I can't get back to the site from the verify button on my email. Can you help or send me to someone who can help?

    Also trying to find what update did this but can't find it again.

    Okay I am still somehow having trouble using links to the site. Do you know any other problems I might have or who to ask?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    At this point, I really do not know how to help you. As far as website links go, the only issue I can see is that both 'forum.quest*rest omitted*' a 'question*rest omitted*' works. If your cookies are on one set of links but the links you try are the other set, that would probably be the issue and it's a problem for everyone.

    Thanks for any help anyways though I appreciate it.

    hi i was wondering what the rule's are for avatar pics i looked but i couldnt find anything so i dont know if i just missed them?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    The only rule that matter there is Rule 2. As avatars are not behind the login wall to see, all avatars thus must be SFW.

    ok thanks for the info
    Could you verify my account please? Also an email to add to my safe sender list for alerts and stuff?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    Verified, but I have no idea what you means with the email stuff.
    Eeuufill
    Thanks. Never received an email for verification and searching on google says emails from this site were blocked or something for outlook. Figured if I could add whatever email is used to my safe sender list. Never mind if that's not how it works.

    You can change your email in Account details anyway.

    Hi, sorry to be a bother, but I changed my email and am now waiting on account verification. I haven't received an email, though. Can you help?

    Hey quick question, what's the rule with me sharing non English works that didn't come from the official publishing site?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    First, it should be in English. Second, if you translate, you must have permission from the author. Alternatively, if you just intend to repost what someone else did, then we do not want that. You may as well go to a recommendation thread and link there instead. And in case of linking, we don't allow links to places that offer downloads.
    nomenclature
    Ok got it thanks
    redred45
    um i have a question i got an alert that said some of my posts were merged in the Ai pic thread with a Edit or wait next time do you know what that was about since i cant seem to find the post that alert was talking about?
    Megaolix

    Avatars must be SFW on QQ. That's it.

    Hello, sorry about this, but I have been waiting in account approval for about 3 months since created. Could you please verify it? Much appreciated.
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    Done. And did you ever try posting somewhere on the forum first? Not profile posts, forum.

    Couldn't even post a hello on the intro thread because I had no privilege to make a reply there.

    I'm trying to change my password because I have a hard time remembering the password I made in creating my account. I'm thinking of finally cross posting my fic from spacebattles, and I need to make a password that I for sure won't forget.

    Thank you.

    Can I get a step by step instructions on how to change my password without having to input the original? Because the only reason I'm still logged in, is that I didn't log out my account on my phone.

    Pls, would you kindly help?
    Megaolix
    Megaolix
    Yeeeah, you should have made that clearer and I ma on phone right now, so it's not ideal for me to do it now. Try asking another for now.
