  • 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.

    Ignored showing in search?

    It's not the only strange loophole in the ignore-thread function. If you posted in a thread before you eventually ignored it, then likes on that post will still appear in your alerts list, unless you turn like notificaitons off entirely. Likewise, if someone @'s you or quotes you in an ignored...

    Reporting Etiquette

    It would be easier to just make the box larger I think. It does have a handle in the corner to drag it larger, assuming you notice it there, so the default height and width shouldn't be too hard to change. If the report box looked larger, it would encourage more explanation of the report...

    Reporting Etiquette

    I do. Perhaps the official rules post regarding reports ought to have the detail about starting a thread each time included in it? Because to the average user the button is rather opaque. Press button, write complaint, hit ok. There's no obvious way in the reporting tool to link multiple...

    Reporting Etiquette

    So, going down the page and reporting a half dozen people all participating in the same derail, which has already been declared a derail by the OP, is explicitly ok?

    Reporting Etiquette

    Maybe not most of them, but at least one will yell at you over PM for it.

    tabs work in signature preview, but not in the actual signature.

    I'm not sure which part of this behavior is a bug. Either tabs are supposed to work in signatures, but don't, or they aren't supposed to, and therefore shouldn't work in the signature preview either.

    Strengthening the ignore function

    I too have just encountered this issue. Ignoring a thread does not ignore quotes or likes, though I couldn't say with regards to @mentions because that hasn't happened to me. When you set a thread on ignore to prevent yourself from engaging in (further) disruptive behavior, it would be good...

    Petition to add most ignored tab to notable members page.

    It was, yes, but speaking as a software dev, pathological cases are exactly the things that show you where your current system needs fixing. Would a "most ignored" list help with that specific situation? Well, it depends. The majority of the problematic actors in that pathological situation...

    Petition to add most ignored tab to notable members page.

    Until people simply give up on the report function, because the problem keeps coming back again and again and again and again.

    Petition to add most ignored tab to notable members page.

    The ideal implementation would be a little more complex, since you don't want to include ignores from people who are ignoring tons of people. You want to weight a nuisance score based on ignores/posts by the ignore-ee and on the ignores/posts from the ignore-er. If you're ignored by an account...

    Threadmark Alerts Suggestion

    Could we have a subscription to the creation of threadmarks? (During or after initial post) Probably wouldn't want an alert if a threadmark just has a name change, or if the ordering is changed, but if a new post is added to the list of threadmarked posts for a thread that could be nice.

    Threadmark Alerts Suggestion

    It would be nice if the OP post alerts included whether said post was threadmarked or not. That way a particularly long OP discussion post wouldn't be easily mistaken for a chapter.

    How do I alter threadmarks?

    The dropdown. Glaurung has newest at the bottom, but both Conduit threads have the newest at the top.

    How do I alter threadmarks?

    Different question, but also about altering threadmarks. I've noticed that the default ordering of threadmarks isn't consistent between threads. Some default to newest at the top, others default to newest at the bottom. Is there some way to pick which way your thread goes? Is this a bug? I...

    Enter the Dragon (Harry Potter/Shadowrun)

    Given the general tone of the story, she'll end up on the block, and then the entire block is going to be on the receiving end of an exceptionally angry Harry. Meanwhile over in America, the locals are going to be pissed about the sudden hole in their anti-travel wards, courtesy of the...

    Can't put zeroes in tables???

    This table should have zeroes "0" on the diagonal from top left to bottom right. {tr} {td} {/td} {td}1{/td} {td}2{/td} {td}3{/td} {/tr} {tr} {td}1{/td} {td} {/td} {td}1{/td} {td}2{/td} {/tr} {tr} {td}2{/td} {td}1{/td} {td} {/td} {td}1{/td} {/tr} {tr} {td}3{/td} {td}2{/td} {td}1{/td}...

    Bizarre alignment/spacing/justification problems

    Phew. Thanks. Trying to fix every instance of that in a RWBY quest would have been quite the task. Ideally Nettally wouldn't use the same style of brackets as BBcode, but it does.

    Bizarre alignment/spacing/justification problems

    So, one of my readers just informed me that some of my old chapters are horribly mangled. When Scygnus reads This post everything after a certain point is all squashed onto a single line that extends off the screen. (No word wrapping) When I read it from my phone, I see the same behavior...
