Well, to start with I wanted to tell you, that i dont care about this.
But maybe some people does:

If someone which is very good at coding creates a good spell in vJASS, with no leaks or whatever, he gets much rep and credits.
But.
If someone which has problem with his vJASS, and has some leaks, he just gets flamed, and stop to make spells. Or coding.

I think it's a very Unfair system.

To be honest, I stopped caring about Rep when I got -3 for telling someone how to do something different, I realized that once you get 100 and you get your pretty little custom title, it's worthless.

I'm a bit puzzled here - may I ask how this

actually related to the reputation system? Unless, of course, you mean that people are getting negative rep for asking questions.

At any rate, not everything in life is fair but, to be honest, rep isn't something that anyone should be losing any sleep over - perhaps a 'Thanks' system would be more appropriate (i.e. people approving of a post through a little Thanks button, but no negative equivalent), although there are situations where people think a -rep is necessary.

How people see the system and what they do with it, will vary from person to person - some people are very conservative about it (either for positive or negative rep) while others can be very liberal with it.

I meant that If anyone creates a vJASS spell without any knowledge about vJASS, he gets flamed for the creation of his spell.

Somewhere someone need to start.. even it might not be the best "vJASS" Whatever that is lol
I mean you learn alot more when you try it you self.
So give them a Chance without be flamed. Well, It doesn't hurt someone.

If someone made the best dinner ever to you. Even if that person never cooked a meal before. what would you say than?

Where is this? If people are flaming, that should be reported. We don't tolerate that sort of thing around here.

It was an example. Not flamed, but what word to use? He gets told about his leaks on a way that isnt very fair. :O

It is harsh criticism yes... But all artists get this, as per the situation decrees it... If you do a bad job and don't get criticized for it you may delude into thinking it's the next best thing, when it's absolutely horrid. You'd have loved that harsh criticism then.

Constructive criticism and flaming are two completely different things. Do not accuse anyone of doing the latter when they're doing the former.
Constructive criticism should be taken on-board, and you should learn how to improve your spells or codes from such comments.

Everybody had to learn at some point in time.

And besides that, are you surprised that somebody who knows what they're doing, and helps people gets more reputation than somebody who is learning, and asks for help? :rolleyes:

It's fair that a resource being submitted for approval should receive criticism if it has problems, or if it leaks. We don't approve those, and not many people would want to use one.

Flaming should be reported. People who are new to coding should figure out what they are doing before they try and submit something.

When you registered to this site, where did it say that this is a fair democracy where everyone gets what they want?

I think you actually missed the part that this site is a rallying point for Combine forces that is preparing to invade earth and enslave its population.

i think only the people who truly care only about rep only will be siding with the "unfair" rep system here.

Its a point system for peaks sakes, rep points dont matter outside of this forum.

I'm confused here.

This is... right. What's so abnormal about this?


If someone which has problem with his vJASS, and has some leaks, he just gets flamed, and stop to make spells. Or coding.
This confuses me? What's it got to do with the reputation system? Probably Romek's post best describes this scenario.


Anyway, just do whatever you think is right and go with the flow. You'll get recognised soon enough. :)

I think it's just for a tad bit more "fun and games".
Also, this section is titled "Forum Questions", and this thread lacks a question related to the forums, just an opinion. Thus, this thread goes bye-bye.

You don't like it, you don't use it. You do like it, you do use it. If someone gets mad enough to quit something over rep, they have issues if you ask me... :rolleyes:

Closed.

    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
