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.
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.
Yeah, which is why I think it was targeted at certain stories, since the things that they tagged me for?
Thanking my Patrons and such?
Herald and those stories have it too.
Been getting some nasty messages about some of my stories, so this is probably related to that.
October 2, 1917
Winter Palace
Petrograd, Russia
Afternoon
We sat in the throne room of the Winter Palace, though "throne room" now felt like a sick joke. The gold, the chandeliers, the oil portraits of stiff Romanovs—everything smothered under red banners like the palace itself had been taken...
Would anyone mind if County got a few swings in while we're still kind of within the postal code of Dubious Writing Decisions by CRWBY and weird unsettling thoughts? No? Okay.
Editor von BarnOwl here. It ended up being more than a few.
James Ironwood has to be one of the most useless generals...

POV: Arthur Sinclair
Minutes passed as I waited for Echo and Deimos to reply. It was seven full minutes before a reply finally came from Deimos.
“Unknown program purged. Updated security measures are sufficient.”
I groaned and flopped onto my back. The wait had been exhausting and I...
Huh. I thought I could pick and choose which to get, but nope, that gives you all those games at once. Neato. I guess just installing what I want is my pick and choose thing then... Also, I see what they are doing, and I'm for it.
@Mr Zoat, I beseech thee in humble supplication, let us see OL's daughter Best Girl Mazikeen again!
I've been re-reading the story and I've always loved their interactions, as short and few as they were. Maybe he can even introduce her to the Missus if she's not busy with Darkstars business.
You forget that a lot of the restrictions in internet freedoms nearly always fail.
SOPA and PIPA were going to turn the internet into cable tv with throttled internet sites.
It failed because people found out about it and stood up to protect the freedom of the internet.
Payment processors and...
Getting out of the hotel, and walking far enough for Fee to feel safer talking in the open, we wander to the mouth of the cave we came out just a day ago. It feels like eons ago now.
"There's a lot I want to say. Are you okay with that?", Fee asks. His voice doesn't waver like before, but...
Knowing him, he probably wouldn't have wanted to be seen. He wouldn't have gone down to the receptionist area. He wouldn't stay at public locations, unless they had a sense of privacy. He wouldn't stay out in the open. Meaning, he's in the boys' bathroom.
And I'm hit with a bit of a problem. I...
The door creaks open. From behind, a beanie wearer peeks inside.
"Fetrea."
His jaw drops, but then he quickly straightens his face. His eyes move from me to Silk, and then back to me. Almost in the same manner that Mister Tyke had done when seeing Silk feed me. Which, is maybe a thought I...
Been getting bombarded with Videos about YouTube going to be doing the Age Verification thing. Using AI. Claims to have exemption criteria such as "longevity" whatever that means. Mine is almost old enough to drink so hopefully that will be enough but would be surprised if they're not blatantly...
Relaxing, Thump looked around. "How about a tour? I'm really excited to see this place." With his confidence and quick adjustment to the situation, he exuded natural charisma.
Since Kai had a good feeling about the impressive goblin, he was excited to oblige. After all, their little dungeon was...
ARWIN
The meeting spot was a perfect, and likely unnatural, ring of trees growing so closely together that they formed a fence with openings too narrow for a body to go through. The outside of the ring was ringed with berry-filled shrubbery. At the nymph's command, giant tree roots...
