Too high of a chance for abuse.
The staff can't see PMs, so there's no way to stop some bad things flying around....

No.

Actually, I don't even know that it's even possible to allow attachments in PMs ever....

Mr.New Member sends over 10,000 members a cool .exe (virus) and who knows? the admins can't see your PMs.

> unless you use a zip
Is it there really a difference when it comes to malicious software being zipped or not?

People could also share copy-written files through PM and then TH could be blamed for having them on the server.

Over-apart, I once heard from someone that the staf CAN see your PMs...I guess both thought wrong...so then, seems fair enough.

Heres an idea.

Only allow wc3x files / image files. Through PMs not executeables or video/music files.
This only allows sharing of images and maps not illegal music / videos.
You can control whats being attached you can probaly do the same for PM's?

Possible PM:
Hi,

Here's the MP3 file you requested. As the stupid forum doesn't allow .mp3 files, you have to change the extension from .jpg to .mp3

Have fun.

It's always possible to piggy-pack an MP3 in a JPG file. That would even bypass PHP-based content inspection.

Why don't you upload it to somewhere else, and give them the link in the PM?

http://www.mediafire.com/ is easy to use and free. No waiting time, or "Verify this code" things, just click and download.

    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.

    @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
