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.

Just a man. Just a guard. Just one of the inhabitants of one of the many cities of the Empire. One of the faces in a faceless crowd. That's how it was. And it would have continued to this day. If not for the incident... That unfortunate incident when a tiny grain of sand, one of many like it, causes a real rockfall. And now he's not just a guard, but a foreman. Favoured by the bosses and authorities of the town. Nominated for a reward. And a considerable monetary reward awaits him. But... But he only has three days left to live. And only a malicious demon can save him. If they can come to an agreement with this evil spirit, of course. The only question is whether the cure will be worse than the disease. And whether he will ultimately have to pay for his short life with his immortal soul... By becoming possessed...
