I was, well out of thehelper.net for some time to make my sites. Now my server has a feature where there is two tabs when posting (HTML and Normal Look) could you also have one like (Code View and Normal View). So that you don't need too much previews anymore, and it will be less confusing.


Well, I found a nice clean forum, and they got those cute subforum links below the forums, I think its a shortcut XD Can we have one?


A feature that lets you save a bookmark like thread list, so that you would see if there are new posts. (Oh there is subscribe xD)

Oh thanks for combining AceHart

I'm confused what you mean, like a Rich Edit text box that shows the text as bold instead of showing bold tags?

Most of these fields are very buggy (especially in browsers other than IE...)

If you could post a screenshot or something showing what you mean that would be helpful

I agree with the rich text thing.
And as for dead threads... Thehelper has a LOT more threads then thehive.

Oh by the way, I liked the feature "Group Memberships" in THW it has some list for groups that you can join on, maybe for clans, mapmakers hiring members etc.

I thought THW has more threads xD I'll go check out wc3campaigns next time xD I wonder what group will I join right now :rolleyes:

Why don't we keep thing simple? Instead of having useless things, and giving more work for our coders.
(AceHart and others :D)

It's a good idea, it's somehow similar to blogger, when you edit or create a post on your blog..

If you don't know how to spell then pay better attention in school.

You sometimes make wrong spellings, anyway, I'm good in English, even though I'm here in Philippines, we have a subject about it.

"Go advanced" and you have one...

That's a feature of your browser, not the forum software.

Yeah, I knew that, right click on the text box and choose spell check, but sometimes I forget to check the spelling of my post.

I didn't say I never made any mistakes, what I said is that if you can't spell then pay better attention in school, but by that I really meant don't ask for unnescesary programs to check for you when there is allready such features built into the browsers either by default or by plugins. But all in all it wasn't that serious a reply, so don't go crying now.

Of course we would need a spell checker, if you think I requested it because I suck at spelling, think again, I requested it to save a little time xD

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net

    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.

    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

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