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.

  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.

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

    I have "get email notifications of OP replies" and "get email notifications for replies" turned off in preferences but I'm still getting some emails on my account when people reply to certain threads. I've looked through the options several times but I can't find a relevant option to have these emails stop coming. I don't want to have them all forwarded to my spam folder but I don't want to learn about every new reply for every thread I revisit on a whim

    Have you checked so that when you watch a thread you don't have the option to get email notifications?

    "Automatically watch threads that you create or when you reply..."? No, from the wording I assumed that that would simplymake it so that threads I make and reply to aren't auto watched. I'll uncheck it if it prevents me from getting emails
