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.

    I have an image that I'd like to include in a thread but I can't work out how to get it in there. The image isn't on the internet, it's only saved on my computer in a PNG format. Any help that anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated as I'm pretty much tech illiterate.

    To put an image on the Internet, it needs to be stored on a server somewhere that makes it available. QQ doesn't directly provide image hosting services, so you'll need to find an image host (imgur is good), upload it there, then use the URL they give you on QQ.
