-rep message?

After -repping someone it says the same message as +repping, which is along the lines as May you receive the same in return. And I've always thought, why would I want -rep in return?

I don't know if we can fix that... But we've noticed it and it has been commented on before :) We're aware.

That's precisely the point.
Besides, don't fix what isn't broken.

Yeah I kind of agree. It really makes you rethink before you -rep someone. So you would only -rep if that person actually deserved it. I read somewhere the someone would delete useless -rep every once in awhile. Not sure if this is true but I read it or dreamed I read it. So if the person who pointlessly -rep someone might get -rep themselves. While if it was a pointless -rep then it would just get reversed.

Too bad the actual message appears after you give out -rep...

Possibly TH sometimes looks through people's rep and removed the ones that are made on random posts.

I wouldn't mind havng having negative of what SilverHawk has. But I don't want to cause trouble around to get that much -rep.

You'd be banned far before you got there.
As I recall, one of the messages for ryoko's rep was "SD_Ryoko, only god has kept you from being banned."

Yeah, I don't really know why we have any below -50; however, it makes for a good laugh. :p

It still doesn't sound right no matter how you think about it... It's always, may you get -rep too!!!

Could be worse.

We could reset rep all across the board. People with near 1000's of rep suddenly have nothing and are no better and no worse than someone who just signed up.

Total equality.

Then again, isn't that what communism was about? :rolleyes:

Yep...

Any many people think I am not worried about rep as long as my rep doesn't go below 100

    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
