It is quite nice to know how does every member met Thehelper.net forum ?:p

It was from about year and half,
when I was searching for forums that talking about warCraft, there was a lot of them, and I remember I registered on 2 or 3 forums and TH.net was one of them, And till now I am member of this nice site as you can see :D

I was learning some tricks about RoC mapping from Virgin-Flesh, and he said that he would teach me how to do all the fancy tricks to enhance maps, as long as I wrote a tutorial on it and posted it here. So I registered here, but it took a very long time to write the tutorial and I didn't get it done for quite a while. By the time I got it posted, I had been here for a long time, and I ended up liking the community.

I googled:
"Where can I find a gold mine?"

I think like 3 years ago.

Then I registered as redshirt1000. I disappeared for a while and when I came back, I could no longer log in. I reregistered as redshirt10000. Same thing happened.

I finally reregistered as w/e, thinking that I was not going to stay, but here I am. I no longer map all that much, although I have a map underway...

I believe I was just looking for custom maps to play cause I was bored. Then I started making my own. Eventually, I registered here and that is the day the Golden Age died :(

I've done everything from getting banned to becoming an Admin. Can't touch this.

Seems like a majority of regulars came here looking for help. That's interesting.

Most people actually come here through the tutorials site, which, of course, comes up when they search help. That is, after all, how I got here.

Took me forever to find the "Forum" button, too o_O

I stumbled in off the streets. It's warm in here and they have pie, so I hung around.

Heh, seriously though, I was a WE noob trying to find out how to 'make a unit into a hero??' and came across the WE Help Zone on this site.

Gah. I remember, back in the day... That was THE question to ask. It was like hazing, or something. You had to ask it and get flamed for being an idiot to be accepted. Swear to...

God, I hated that question o_O

The only time the helper gave me +rep was when I made a "The Helper" icon for all the staff (admins) he liked it.

I searched on google years ago and found some basic sites about mapping and got interested.

Then I found the worldeditortutorials site and eventually came to the forums part of it (had to google search every time because I couldnt remember the name:D ) and then I google searched one day and I couldnt find the world editor tutorials site and thought it was the end of the world.

Then about a month later I found the forums again and decided to ask questions in the forums, but I didnt see the use in registering because I didnt know how long this mapping thing would last for me (turned out to be longer than I thought) I used to ask questions as a non-user person who didnt get posts or rep, till they removed that function and I decided to just create an account called "master master" . . . turns out my name was not allowed to be that long so it had to be shorted to master maste. and thats my store. :p

Conan and I were actually lab rats for TH with the rep system. We would randomly gain or lose chunks of rep because he was messing with the comments and other things.

After awhile, we stopped caring about rep because we knew the staff more or less held us in some kind of high regard. After all, if TH didn't think we would be cool with it, I don't think he'd have done it.

I think the first rep I gave here was -Repping TH himself. I was having a bad day and yelled at him for not being helpful enough :p

    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

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
