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.

    So Xon built this add-on a while ago (https://xenforo.com/community/resources/vote-tally.5752/) and it be nice to have. With qqbot on IRC constantly going down, and NetTally (while awesome) only working for Windows, having a platform neutral option for tallying votes for quests would be super nice.

    Its not too expensive at 30 bucks, and a yearly licence cost of $15.00, and I think it would be a nice thing to have, so people on MacOS or running a linux distro can actually tally votes without worrying about whether qqbot is down again.

    This looks nice, but seems to be XF 1 only. I'm not currently looking to add new addons to the forum until after the XF 2 upgrade, which is due to happen Real Soon Now (tm).

    I'm not sure if current SB/SV have this capability, but I don't see any XF 2 version of the addon on Xenforo's site.

    It's enabled on SV, and they are running on the XF2 platform, so I am pretty sure its compatible. At worst I don't think it would hurt to reach out to him on Xenforo's main forum or on SV directly.

    EDIT: And it's also on Spacebattles too, just checked.

    In that case it's probably currently a private addon, and he'll publish it sometime over the next year like he does most of the others.
