Yeah, since TH said I should post this here, I decided to do so.
Here goes:

Well, I thought of something like User of the Year 2008 Awards, where we vote for the dude/dudess that we like the most/has done the thing the most that the poll is about. So far I have the following categories in mind:

  1. Best News Poster
  2. Best Poster
  3. Best Spammer :)D)
  4. Best Resource Poster
  5. Best Helper
  6. Best JASSer
  7. Best JASS Helper
  8. Worst Helper
  9. Worst Poster
  10. Worst Resource Poster
  11. And so on...

Each winner will have an icon with "User of the Year 20XX: Category XXXXX", like when winning contests. I can create the thread, count votes, and all that crap.

What do you say?

>Best Spammer
Awesome oxymoron.

Awards sound pretty cool :p
Thought we had some already though.
But meh, sounds a bit generic. We need some creative people to come with some more creative titles =D

Ah, isn't it just great when Ace posts something other than "Not at this time" in Bugs & Features? <3

Well the reason why he probably isn't turning this down is because someone will eventually post the awards, whether that be a Staff member or someone else. Though we could easily keep this thread open for suggestions, etc. :p

We usually just havee people post someone for each category,

but we don't tally it up too see which member gets which awards. (As far as I am aware)

That's so the creator of this thread can finally get an award too: "Uncoolest member ever".

Oh thank you. I'm coming what a suggestion, and all you do is flame me. How the heck should I know that there already were this stuff? I'm not a veteran.

Well, this thread was bound to happen sooner or later.
This year it's a bit soon.
Regardless though, the categories just aren't any interesting... no match really for the previous times.
Best Poster and Best Helper are both boring and no difference.
Best News Poster? There's only two of them anyway, and one is TH himself. Pointless.
The other one would have to be the Worst News Poster?
There also aren't any winners here...

"Nice try". You're still not any cool.

I never said I wanted to be. To me it seems that because I maybe do some not-that-good stuff, I'm just the one to be hated. I'm not going to be passive about that, that's just plain stupid. And so are you.

If someone wants to start this thread (though preferably closer to the end of the year), be my guest.
It just won't be "Vestras".
That guy really doesn't qualify for anything other than sitting very quietly in some corner.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    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
