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

  6. A note about the current Ukraine situation: Discussion of it is still prohibited as per Rule 8

  7. The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.

  8. The testbed for the QQ XF2 transition is now publicly available. Please see more information here.

    Hi, just posting to let the mods know I'm the user Nero200, but can't get back into that account on most of my devices due to having lost access to the password manager that held it, and the associated email being a live.com one.

    I posted about the issue from that account, but there was no reply.

    So, not a sockpuppet! Let me know if there's anything you need from me to prove this or such.

    I've sent E-mail to the address on your old account. Reply there and I'll run a password reset.

    Confirming the same, replied on phone without thinking about which account that would mean I replied from.

    Still haven't received the email. Should I make another new account and merge into that one, rather than merging into this one, if there are issues?

    Sorry, that confirmation had somehow gone to junk for me as well.

    I've responded via E-mail with the new password.
