I've just been scrolling through this thread, and what I've seen is this:
  • Her
  • Depression
  • Pain
  • She
  • Untitled Horror
  • Extenction
  • Apoptosis
  • High School Sucks
  • Because He Loves Me

So, is 80% of this forum about him/her, Pain/Depression and Horror/Extinction/Deadly Viruses?
oO
We really need to enjoy life more^^

You missed my smoking president and Tienanmen Square poem :thup:

Pain wasn't about some gory theme, or a "down-in-the-dumps"-like either. It was meant to show rebirth or cleansing through trial. o.o Guess it came off wrong.

People write what they want. Unless they are being paid to do it.

You really shouldn't be demanding people to write about different stuff.

I saw this more as an tip than a demand. He's pointing out that if 10/10 is doing X, you are likely to win attention if you're doing Z.

I see it as someone complaining about artistic expression, because he doesn't like it's content

People write some things because they want to, for emotional expression, for fun, and just for the hell of it.

If you don't like what's here, in my honest opinion...go complain somewhere else. I personally enjoy a great deal of what's written here, as for more 'positive' content...

If you want it, you write it, because unless someone feels like it, they're not going to.

He's not complaining at all, and he was very, very, nice in the way he presented the post.

I'm not saying he's not nice, but I do see it as someone complaining.

I'm not stating that's a fact, I'm stating that's my opinion, like it or not, but I'm standing by that.

I'll probably post one of my more interesting works or a satire. People write what they want to write. But they should also try to experience stuff outside their safety zone, because that's also fun too :p



When I am done with creativity.thehelper.net and when I am done helping out with starcraft2.thehelper.net, I'll try to post more of my content and as well try to bring some more RPs if people want that.

Well you are complaining about someone else complaining, ;)
And he just gave some friendly talk advice: "we should enjoy life more"
What's wrong with a reminder of life once in awhile, :)
Now that you put it that way... most of the stuff I do is also not exactly too happy, ha.

Point taken, but I wasn't gonna sit there and not let the fact that I disapproved of his post not be known

I guess I need to start posting heavily metaphoric stuff that makes little to no sense again.

My heart doth burn
A thousand flames
Because of your loves
You're the greatest of the dames

I loveth Olde English
Though I use it wrong
But somehow I'll get through this
.... pond.

Shadows dance on my wall
I find them amusing
I think I've seen it all
But then again it's all very confusing

If I make cryptic rhymes
Just to past the time
And don't keep to a format
I'll be walked over like a doormat

Like a doormat

Yeah, if I didn't write the very same stuff, it would really look like it. Since, however, I do like the stuff I write myself, and I do like a lot of stuff others write, your point is completely invalid.
Oh, and... If you don't like this thread, in my honest opinion...go complain somewhere else.

@Ninva "I don't post my stuff anymore.:("
How come? oO
What I was saying is not that we should stop creating sad stuff, just that we should probably acknowledge life's beauty a little more.

@Miz
I'm waiting^^

@Dakho "I'll be walked over like a doormat"
I love this line. It made me rofl for 2 minutes : )

Anyhow, this thread was much more in the sense the majority - including thewrongvine, Zakyath and ToolTipError - understood it.

Best wishes, Serra

Apparently, there is an unconscious vibe centered around 2012 that is spreading amongst the inhabitants of thehelper.

My poem you mentioned wasn't necessarily a sad story. It's about life. It's deleted though for publishing issues.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • 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

    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.
