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.
    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.

    It looks like I got ambushed by one of Amazon's new crew of drive-by editors. They have a habit of 'suspending' books to make sure you respond to their comments, and then it takes the system a few days to process your updated manuscript and re-enable the book. It should be available again in a day or two, depending on how slow their system is.

    No, they just hit you with a list of spelling and grammar errors to fix. Which wouldn't be so bad, except the people they have doing the editing are often wrong about the more technical issues.

    I think I've had to explain how multi-paragraph quotes work to five of them now.

    Honestly, I can understand their confusion, I don't see multi-paragraph quotes all that often either.

    That's quite strange, given my reading on kindle I had thought that just no one at all cared about traditional editing like that anymore.

    Also seems likely they're hiring them in India or something, given that no jobs like that seem to be available on their job pages.
