This site is forum based and chat reduces the number of posts in the forum and draws people away from the forum. It is a competitor to the forums even though it is on the same site.

Yet its still probably the best way to get help is the forum if I notice anything from the Hive chat is that most of the time we just sit around talking XD
No one ask for help that much, they go to the forum for that

and if they do need help we mostly just redirect them towards another thread or tutorial etc.

What you could do is use the IRC for small questions (like the "how to go over level 10" we get from time to time) and if they have a bigger question, you can ask them to post it on the forums.

Of course, It's not warcraft only :p

I'm glad we're getting an IRC. Idle FTW (or not)

It was not even an option on our server until we got this one. The fact that we can host the chat on our server is the reason we are considering it. Plus, Acehart apparently knows how to set it up and if he was not setting it up it would not happen period because nobody else around here could do it.

I see. The way you had explained it was that it was always consider but the server couldn't handle.

I could. :) I'm sure others around here could too. :eek: It's really not that hard if you use a free chat script, etc.

He's talking about implementing the vbulletin system into IRC so if someone registers on thehelper.net he can logon IRC and he can be banned from IRC and thehelper.net / ect . I don't think he wants a free script.

If it ends up like that would be so cool. I have personally not seen the implementation but its coming....

About my nick..

Well.. It's quite stupid that my nick cannot be found by searching.. so I cannot be ignored. Because of the "Ü" as the first letter.

So is it possible to make it so that this forum knows the "Ü" letter, or then simply someone could set it (refers to my nicks first letter) to "U".

Also.. I cannot do the registeration in the chat because of this I suppose..

> someone could set it to "U".

This could be done, yes.

> I cannot do the registration

That's normal. For now...


Though, this opens up a couple of questions... hm...

    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.

    @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.

    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
