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.

    Proposal: expand palette of Like buttons with (icon) as follows...
    - Headpat (hand)
    - Lick (tongue)
    - Poke (extended finger)
    - Touch Inappropriately (pinching fingers)
    - Meow (catgirl)

    This will allow QQ members to express their affection in ways that are more forum-appropriate.

    I know we are lewd and all, but it might make some members uncomfortable.

    'Like' is boring, but it's reasonably value-neutral and work for most purpose. Very practical.

    Well, okay. Catgirl can stay. Mostly because nobody agreed what it means. The rest, though...

    Yeah I like the ambiguity of 'like' myself. Maybe I like the content, maybe I like the effort, maybe I like the ideas raised, etc. It helps flag the interesting posts in a thread if I'm browsing and lightly encourage whatever the person was doing without thinking too hard about the message sent like with a multiple-option system.

    There are many cases where I keep wishing for a SV-esque "hugs" (when someone describes their real-life troubles, there usually isn't much to "like" in there), but ideas along the lines of what the OP proposed (i.e. just differently-flavoured varieties of "like") are unlikely to be particularly useful.

    Gotcha covered on that one.

    Guess I should have spelled things out a bit more, but it's right there if you look.
