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.

IMO, asparagus is probably the single most perishable thing in any kitchen it is in. As I understand it, It suffers from the leaf crop problem of becoming tough and bitter as it ages, except way faster, and the corn problem of converting sugars to starch once harvested.
If you aren't buying...
Why would you want to sort by watches or views when sorting by most recently created threads? Barring stories created by someone who already has a lot of followers that wouldn't really change the order.
If you want to find stories created during a certain period of time where the most recent...
...european. That's my understanding at any rate.
This isn't taking into account all the various grey-area workarounds either, let alone the *actual* black market.
Official, mass-market slavery of non-criminal christians was technically illegal, but that's about as far as protections went...
Indeed, though I can't specify a timeframe when a thread was posted and, much more importantly, I can't additionally sort by watchers/views as that is in the same category as "First Messages".
You know perfectly well that's not going to happen, it has been repeatedly stated that tag controls like that will not be a thing. Stop trying to take over unrelated threads with this debate.
The most annoying part is that reminds me of a Rimworld/ASOIAF fic idea I had.
Mechanitor ends up in Westeros (on an unhabitated place in the North) with a couple mechanoids.
5 Agrihands
5 Constructors
5 Cleansweepers
5 Lifters
5 Militors
5 Scythers
Why all those mechanoids? Because I...
So I’m in South Carolina now and things are a little better.
Still got a long hard road back to anything like the life I had before.
It’s made more difficult because the people I’m staying with live… in a more remote area and don’t have reliable transportation. I’m not physically able to walk...
If people think that one invention will immediately catipult their tech development by several orders of magnitude then they clearly haven't played Factorio since you need entire production chains just to create most construction materials.
Now take this model and apply it to the ancient...

There is another reason.
The Chinese state was all willing to allow development of new weapons because that could desestabilize the system.
There is also the market factor. No demand. No development. No production.
I can buy someone inventing something, but that means a new product, not 'lol...
I have a very strong dislike of introducing any invention in fanfics
Most notably the firearm
It is true that the Chinese could make gunpowder
However the reason no muskets were made is not necessarily because nobody thought of it
It is because metalworking techniques could not make guns
Unless...
the thing is, my outlier IS a harry potter fanfic (Ouroboros if you want to know the title; basically, Graham from Nanoha straightened out the Dursleys to treat Harry decently and they gradually learned to treat him as one of their own)
Don't you know? World development is like a CIVILIZATION GAME.
I can buy someone being able to make a Guntenberg machine.
Now make an industrial revolution? Nah. That is impossible. The industrial revolution requires a WHOLE ECONOMICAL/SOCIAL/CULTURAL ecosystem which are just absent from Westeros.
"I am in Westeros, Printing Press!"
Me: Oooookay...now an important question. How that means 'industrial revolution'?
At best you are creating a new product that people can buy, but nothing else. And it will also depend if people NEED it even.
...their opinions at all because he knew what it would be. Just a tantrum thrown by the people who had never once in their lives expected to be as helpless as they are now while dealing with a human.

...the tension in the area, “You guys don’t have Skype, do you?”
Fury’s palm met his face at that. He quietly coughed to hide the snicker that almost came out, before turning to Ms.Weber once more.
