OK... so before i begin i would like to get all of the bs out of the way ... this is my second forum thread on any site anywhere ... i know i have poor grammar and probably poor spelling ... if you wanna harp about it plz go somewhere else :cool:
That said ... i am new to forums so i plan to post multiple threads with "So I'm New and I need help with:" as the starting line ... that way if you need to reference other threads of mine in order to help me or maybe once I've gained some experience for me to help you they should be easy to navigate.
So since the only thing i know how to do is post and respond to a thread so far... i would very much like it if someone would or could help me out with navigating through this site to find things i need ... especially with things for specific topics
EXAMPLE: if i need to find something about triggers in warcraft 3 maps what would be the best way to go about doing it and which threads would be most useful and how would i get to them? :D

although that was an example it is also something i need so if anyone would like to post on my "very first post on any site ever" titled So I'm New and I need help with: Warcraft 3 map making it would be greatly appreciated ... but ya stuff i need is pretty much best way to navigate this site to get info that is helpful and any help that people are willing to post to help me with any other thread (once i gain more experience and am able to help others I will do so ... but as of now please forgive me for not being of much to this forum:confused:)

Hey there, welcome to our small community :)

Navigating the size is pretty easy all-in-all.

To your left you have a nagivation bar. It lists all sub-forums we have here.
There you'll also find the World Editor Help subforum where you can post things related to Warcraft III's editor, or the Warcraft subforum for everything Warcraft.

When you're inside a subforum it often is a good idea to first search for topics similar to your problem.
For example, if I wanted to look for information regarding the locust ability on units I would start a search. As a result I'd get a list of all topics where my search term appeared.

That's a good way of finding a solution to your problem without having to wait for someone to answer it ;)

If you can't find what you were looking for, or if your problem is more specific then there's nothing stopping you from making a new post ;)

I guess that's the most important things if you want to find help.
Good luck on your search for knowledge.

Please do not feed the FireCat.
Oh yes .. Beware of FireCat. He prefers to stay on the ... irrational side of arguments :D

And if you ever find yourself in dire need of a used steel pipe (for example to punish a certain cat) look no more :D

Just as a reminder, starting threads with a title like this:
So I'm New and I need help with: X
is not a good idea.
Make it shorter or nobody is going to read it.

really appreciate the help with this post :) ... and i get your point accname but i set my first few posts to that because the kind of people that would go out of their way to help someone who is CLEARLY new are the kind of people i prefer to deal with ... although in the future i plan to have something to clearly identify my posts anyway just so its easier to get help and possibly easier to help others :D
 
General chit-chat
Help Users
  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
