The staff has decided that for activity and content purposes that several forums would be consolidated, as such the forum order has been slightly altered.

Code:
[B][SIZE=4]CATEGORY - GENERAL GAMING[/SIZE][/B]

	[B]General Gaming[/B] = Formerly Games


[B][SIZE=4]CATEGORY - COMMUNITY[/SIZE][/B]

	[B]General Discussion [/B]
		Humor  (Sub-Forum)
		Video Clips  (Sub-Forum)
		Debate*  (Sub-Forum)

	[B]Headling News[/B]
		News Submission  (Sub-Forum)

	[B]Entertainment Zone[/B] = Formerly Movies & Music Forums
		Anime/Manga (Sub-Forum)
		Fighting (Sub-Forum)

	[B]Bugs and Features - Forums Questions[/B]

General Gaming has received its own category in the hope of promoting new game discussions!

The Entertainment Lounge category has been divided to go along with forums that overlap in interest (as such Humor is now a sub-forum with General Discussion, etc.).

Lastly, some forums were absorbed by others. The Movies and the Music Forums both merged together to make the general Entertainment Lounge Forum.

If you are confused or have a suggestion, you are free to ask a staff member or post below.

All rules for these forums remain the same.

Thanks!
Miz & The Helper Staff

Silly Miz always forgetting things - The order of the Starcraft Forums and Warcraft Forums has been altered so that the Starcraft Forums remain on top.

As said before, post below for any concerns, comments or suggestions.

Why exactly is "humor" a sub-forum to "general discussion". What do those topics have in common?
Shouldnt humor be placed within the "Entertainment Zone"?
Same for video clips. It doesnt make much sense to me.

Entertainment is for things like books, movies, music, etc...

Until an entire industry is built around people taking about how they can't wait for the next big 'lolcat photo' to come out, it's a general discussion thing, not an 'entertainment'.

And if you believe entertainment should be things that keep you occupied, then logically, the world editor or star edit areas are entertainment. So if writing, and graphics

Well, honestly, considering "General Discussion" is a discussion about... Generally everything ;) [See what I did there?]

One could argue all forums technically belong as a sub-forum for General Discussion. But wouldn't that just be an organizational mess?

    If you are new to the site please check out the Recipe and Food Forum https://www.thehelper.net/forums/recipes-and-food.220/
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    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.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do

    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
