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.
I was astonished that anywhere in the western world made houses like that. And not cheap houses either. I heard of them on a YouTube channel made by a building inspector who went around drawing circles on the problems in million dollar houses.
Thank you, corrected.
You can't really make assumptions about things like that. If they're in an area with plenty of wood, buildings will be made with wood even if the technology exists. Heck, there are places in the United States today that make buildings out of wattle and daub. It doesn't...

The Captain leads us towards a large building. It's… A bit weird, seeing this many buildings made of wood. I've only really visited advanced worlds before, but this place doesn't even have clay bricks. Or at least, not a lot of them. I would have thought the...

"Stand back!" The g-pooka sits up at the controls, looking disturbed as I jog past to get away from the projector. "Seriously, stand back!"
The g-pooka drops to the floor on all fours and gallops away as the projector starts to hum worryingly.

No, that was Kon-El and Arisia.
Avleb's Wall, a title I invented for the state of not having enough fossil fuels on your planet to develop industrial society.
Though the Sector General series made the point that species with certain physical abilities would have no...

I stare down at the planet while Arisia finishes her scans. I can see places where people live, I can see roads, and I can see what I think are water reservoirs, but I'm… Not seeing a whole lot of industry. That could just be… This part? I dunno. I don't wanna...

I think that's alright. It means 'put up with no more intruders'. 'Bear' in the sense of 'carry a load'.
No. There were a lot others they didn't want out.
Thank you, corrected.
Merry Christmas, everyone.
It's not just that. Aethyr already has access to everything about Jax-Ur. He had...

Kinetic barrier… Not working, which is fair enough given that the fingers just sort of materialised around me rather than coming in from outside of its detection radius. Armour… Not really designed for this. My heavy armour is, but given that everything I know...
