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.

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

    if you try to edit a post you lose all your options (emotes, tags, fonts, colour, ect) and are left with just a textbox.

    you can use [manual tags] but it makes adding a bit of bold or [/quotes] a bit of a chore.


    not to mention embedding stuff.

    is there any way to fix this?

    Which way are you editing?

    You can hit the page icon at the bottom right corner and quick edit, yes, but there's also an edit button- Look next to Quote and MultiQuote, and you'll see a 'Modify' option for when you want to add more then a quick note.

    What Vindictus said.

    The Modify button in the top bar leads to the full text editor.

    I'll leave it so that it might help someone in the future that has the same question.

    If so maybe a name change could help make it clearer. Too tired to think of one now...
