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.
    Dismiss Notice
  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.
    Dismiss Notice
  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.
    Dismiss Notice
  4. If you wish to change your username, please ask via conversation to tehelgee instead of asking via my profile. I'd like to not clutter it up with such requests.

    ...To be fair, I vaguely recalled that a mod swooped in and warned against *something*, and not much more beyond that.

    And I assumed that if it *was* in the rules, someone would have given a citation. Because, as much common sense as it is, it's still something that can be *very* easily breached accidentally.

    I hate how you keep not getting it. Even when the author says that something should be deleted, that you shouldn't be speculating about real-life identity, no not even "jokingly", people like you and Aoinfinity are just choosing to disrespect the author's wishes on this, just because you have a clever argument about why it's okay to disrespect them.

    ...OK, I admit, you're correct, and I should probably walk out of a window. (Don't think I have the guts to actively *jump* out of a window.)

    If my comment doesn't get deleted within the next 24 hours, and/or if I don't receive an answer from the author explaining *why* it should be deleted, I'm seriously considering walking out of said window, because it appears that I'm hopelessly bad and should not exist.

    Sorry.

    ...On second thought, it's so cold out that I'm probably not even going to make it *to* the relevant window. I didn't think of that until I've already written the previous comment.

    I apologize for my apparent inability to even hypothetically get rid of my apparently malevolent life. I hope that some day I'll manage to figure it out more properly.

    Look, that you annoyed me slightly on a forum thread, or that I felt you and Aoinfinity acted in a somewhat bad-mannered way, hardly justifies such an extreme reaction as you suggest.

    Take care, man, and don't take my opinion that seriously. People upset people on the internet, this is inevitable.

    If that helps, I typically get over my outbursts quickly enough that it almost never blows out into much in reality. I think I'm already almost back to normal happy.

    (That said, those chapters *did* remind me of Sheckley, and with Sheckley supposed to be dead, I *am* at least 99% confident that he didn't actually write them.)
