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.
    Dismiss Notice
  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.
    Dismiss Notice
  5. Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

    When I get an alert I don't get an email about it. Is there any way to make sure I do? I've made sure multiple times that I have email notifications turned on.

    Have you gotten E-mails from QQ before the server move on Sunday?

    Only for some of my watched threads. For one of my watched threads I would get them. But for another I only got the first email notification, and them for like 5-6 updates afterward I didn't get anything, the only reason I noticed was that I got on QQ and I had a whole but of alerts.

    I'd like to add I haven't received an email from QQ since August 4 and only just noticed.
