Unfortunately, the server has experienced a full database server crash; The worst case scenario.

As you can see, your post count might have gone down and things such as titles, locations, etc. might be from a while ago, as the site has been restored from early January.

Recent posts and threads might have been deleted, or are waiting to be restored, so we'll have to wait and see what TheHelper or SD_Ryoko can tell us.

Anyone happen to know what caused this... i'm sure this was asked before.

Was it just like the server just died? Like my wireless adapter just died last week for no apparant reason(Stopped working, was giving weird router readings, etc).

Or was it a hacker?

Or did TheHelper spill some coffee on the server(GASP)?

Or was it SilverHawks (missingword) looking avatar that killed it?

(Missingword) does not imply a curse word or other offensive term, it just means I can't think of the right one.

... *commits suicide*

Sqarge has mentioned only.. hmm.. 10000000 times :/.

Go ask him or check his posts, hes spent most of his time telling everyone what happened..

Someone should explain it so that EVERYONE hears it -.-

Ok Everyone, this is what happened ( I Know this, as TheHelper Messaged me on Myspace xD ):

TheHelper On Myspace said:
FYI we had a full server crash with a hard drive corruption on TH.net - worst case scenario here. Me and Ryoko are trying to recover but it might take a few days. If you talk to anyone at TH.net you might want to pass the information on.

The End.

I really don't think this is the worst-case scenario.

Mush worse things could happen!

Hehe wow. Seems I've barely been hit by the crash, I have lost 300 or so posts but only 25 rep. Which is actually rather annoying.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
