Lol , the threads name is "The best part of battle net is.." not the worst.

Well... People generally don't remember the good stuff, only the bad.
If youn played a game, and it went well, no problems. Chances are you've forgotten by now.

omfg i just remembered something sooooooo stupid. I was playing heroes and empires, and offered alliances to everyone. Some people refused, I offered again, and again, a few people refused. I found green, asked why he wouldn't ally. No response. I sent an ally request. No response. I recruited my force of mercenaries to attack him, but first I sent one last ally request. No response. Then I levelled his army, but his workers and buildings lived because of the grace period. He says "CK gray." So I got custom kicked because I attacked my enemy. God that really aggravates me. Seriously, if you're going to not ally someone THEY'RE ENTITLED TO ATTACK YOU. And then here's the conversation that took place after his host-friend CK'ed me:

basically they wanted no conflict at all during the grace period apparently, yet they didn't specify that anywhere. In other words, his empire was supposed to have 10 minutes of unfettered growth to build an army that could smash other people easily, instead of playing the game how it should have been played. Sometimes I can really hate b.net. I think I need a hug.

That is the "best" part right there, when people/hosts/friends of hosts misue and abuse CK and Banlist.

I've been CK'ed before in an arena, but not one with creeps, you just go around and kill each other. I was kicked for killing the host. (You rezed too, not like he was dead for good.)

Some people enjoy pissing other people off. My dad told me it's a mental disability. (I mean.. You enjoy annoying people? Why? XD)

First of all, this thread is made of epic win.

Second, this is a new feature that emerged in my clan, where when someone goes afk they activate a retarded spambot that spams out 3 messages in a row every 10 seconds to alert everyone they're afk. HELLO, WE READ THAT THE FIRST 20 TIMES YOU $#@#%@#!@# NOW F*** OFF... then you have to squelch them and guess when to unsquelch them.

Lol!
All I do is type /away and .afk on my clan bot :p
Then it does nothing really. But when people type .whois Romek1uk or .afklist, It says :)

... Time to go on B.net and see what some people do.

Games where you're trying to help other players and you talk to them a bunch, or trying to discuss alliances, and they don't respond. Ever. you spend 5 minutes trying to tell them how to not die, and then they do the exact opposite and die in a terrible slaughter. Or when people try to ally you with the -ally color command, and you ally them. You tell them several times to retype the ally command because it didn't work, but they ignore you. Then when you unally them they flip the fuck out and you're like, "dude your ally command didn't work" and then they completely ignore you again. Oh and I dislike many of the numerous people who think that rushing is imba. And the people who suck and fail, but get saved by a super-skilled ally, and then this one ally wins the game for them, and the guy who did nothing still thinks that they're good.

Funnny what people will do to save themselves from looking retarded, only to look even worse when everyone knows their lying.
The Ever so classic lag excuse is good one
Player1 (losing horribly(wmw): Guys i'm lagging stop sending for a bit
(player 1 keeps sending to catch up (income wise)
Me: I'm not stopping until you stop
Player1 leaves

when ur brother loses his cd-key and steals urs and the only time u can possible play b.net is when he goes to sleep, at 6 am or later, and wakes up at around 12 so unless i pull an all nighter i cant play lmfao

when u join a game called "Dota [something something] noobs, and get CKed for sucking
or
when u warn every1 in game while waiting for others to join that u suck and they say d/w its ok and they end up flaming /cking -.- if only i had my 1337 dota skills i had when me clan beat verge and mym and x6 =\

also aggravates me when channels that i enjoy being in get spammed, like seriously if u got enuff time to spam some1s channel u rly got no life

EDIT: also some1 said something about why people say PP, or y some1 would plug pull, classic example is TDA when you can PP and say you dropped so you dont get banned (still can get banned but increases your chances of staying on the safelist)

O btw tda is ghey 2 years ago i spent like 3 weeks to get my icon to get in and when i got in i got banned w/o playing a game, and when i appealed apperently APPERENTLY i was in a game and left, nice to know the host doesnt spoof check ^^

Demon Hunters, Blademasters, Illidans, Village Children, and Archers that always seem to get picked by the host and go for an 80-0 streak.

Allies who can't seem to find the "Enter" key on their keyboards.

    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
