Custom Keycaps

[Pacifist]

I have decided to reinstate ordering. Some people have shown their maturity, while others have not. The ones who have not still have a chance to show it.

How else could you have made them if not by your hands?  Mold injection?

Well color me interested

Would you possibly be able to make a form for people to write their own names into the ban-list?  I think it would save you time so you can work on all of those parodies.

That would take too much of Pacifist's time away from making his custom keycaps.  Let me help.

Just click the link above and submit your GH screen name to self ban.  After submitting the form, you can click another link on the screen to see who else have self-banned themselves.

What's with the thread crapping?

If you don't like what he does, don't buy anything and move along.

Open up a discussion thread, or continue the discussion that already is existing.

Was in a rush so there were a few bubbles

Im quite interested in a white Storm Trooper cap, with one of these key colors as a base color http://www.pimpmykeyboard.com/deals/the-galaxy-class-keyset/

[admiralvorian]

hey Pacifist I'm just wondering if I got on your original list of 5 for the colored MX blanks?

Yes you did, and I am still working on those.

[keymaster]

Placed an order. 

[Pacifist]

Ordered some yellow and black dye plus a bottle of clear resin, should all come in about a week. Once I experiment around, I will be able to do a full rainbow and in solid or trans colors. The trans resin I'm buying has a 3 hr pot time so it'll cost more per cap, but there won't be as much bubbles

Also in the process of getting more molding material to make the molds for some new designs

[Pacifist]

Oh and forgot to mention, when the new batch of molding material comes in, alps top row, BS (all rows lol), topre top row and fn, and cherry A and B will be added to the options of caps to choose from. They will be slightly more expensive than the current caps only because I don't have as much of a supply of them as I do top row cherry.

Clear normally = more bubbles unless you have a pressure pot. And if you had a pressure pot you wouldn't of had bubbles to begin with.

[Zombly]

I'm more into custom designs, just curious what designs you will be persuing?

[SpAmRaY]

I deliver what the people want. The people want star wars, I give them star wars. They want to pick their colors, I give them the colors they want

That being said, I am working on some custom designs in addition to the current lineup of blanks and the soon to come alps, bs, and topre caps

Thanks Ray,

I read that was just curious, I myself am not a Star Wars Fan, just curious what ideas were cooking in the kitchen, as I am with all keycap makers.

[Pacifist]

Other stuff is in the works

[May0]

Why the ban list? Aren't you just pissing people off and losing money?

[BunnyLake]

i wouldnt worry about any loss of money from the people on that list lol

[riotonthebay]

Pacifist, I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to recommend your custom keycaps until you respond to my PM.

Well it's still kind of strange that he would ban somebody from buying his stuff.

[Dubsgalore]

I just realized now that

1. there is a ban list
2. I am on it

Just so that everyone knows who they're dealing with when you make purchases from Pacifist here:

He sold me (and a lot of other people) some WoB Cherry doubleshots in "good condition" a while back. They arrived dirty, and I finally cleaned them yesterday to find significant shine on many of the keys. I sent him a polite request to resolve the situation yesterday, and a second polite followup today, until a fellow member informed me that I've finally made his coveted ban/ignore list. So a PayPal dispute it shall be. Thanks, Pac!

So glad I canceled those.

You guys are amusing - posting here after bashing him in the other thread. Be mature and let Pacifist have his sale thread.

[anoxy]

On the real though, let's see your best clack skull copycap Pac

can i just call you 2pac

I think people should realize what he really thinks of geekhack or 'geekwhack' as he likes to call it when he is bashing it over on reddit.

In a section where the forum staff have a clear policy of "buyer beware," it is the duty of buyers to report on their experiences with a seller, so that other potential buyers may do just that...BE WARE.

If Pacifist can't stand honest criticism by his customers, he could always go sell his stuff on that other forum, where he likes to refer to this one as GeekWhack.

l8r

let me finish the parody im working on now and then I'll work on a cap crack

[esoomenona]

To be fair, you knew what he meant. How does the fact that he thinks of this place as geekwhack have anything to do with purchasing his caps? Until someone does, and he fails to deliver in that, then these posts aren't criticism of him as a seller of custom caps, but of him as a disliked figure around here.

It's very obvious his intent to copy people's caps, as he stated clearly in his OP. And the problem is people are okay with that, and will purchase them. Either action needs to be taken by the moderation team stopping this, or it is let go. But what good will come of poking fun of his childish ban list and him calling this place geekwhack?

[Pacifist]

They aren't copies, they're parodies and a kritik of the condition of novelty caps

[esoomenona]

You call them parodies because you think that's your loophole into creating copies of caps, to profit off of them based on the discussion that was brought up in a previous thread, or to gain attention/notoriety for it. Regardless, I'm no fool. Please do not treat me as one telling me that this is a critique of the state of novelty caps today, and not your attempt at money/attention seeking.

I don't agree with what you're doing here, but I also don't agree with how everyone is handling it either. Don't mistake what I say to them as approval on my end of what you're doing.

I think you need to learn what those words (parody, Kritik) mean first, before you try and apply them to your little enterprise as "fair use." I don't think there is any problem with your so-called "copying" of nubbinator's Stormtrooper caps, as that intellectual property belongs to Lucasfilm (now Disney), anyway. So you are both copying their work, in that case. But if you go after other, original designs, I think you will run into big problems.

[Pacifist]

You haven't even seen them -.-

I did what binge said, and I handmade them, plus adding a twist of my own

Wait a few weeks and then comment back when you actually have something to apply your "wisdom" to

[BunnyLake]

he is clearly working hard to make you believe that these will be genuine parodies

here you can see he has made some parodies of keycaps

Ohkay... I had no idea you were making a philosophical debate using your keys as a vehicle.

I have a criticism for you.  A parody of "capitalistic key designs" which affords you the capital to buy new supplies is hypocritical.

Okay, I'll wait a few weeks and see if you come to an understanding of what those words mean...

The ethics of the fighting of your capitalistic designs through parody outweigh any outcomes of said protest

[domoaligato]

I could say a lot about how they are not original blah blah counterfeiting blah blah  . add me to your ban list.
I never had any intentions of buying your copycaps anyways.
