Author Topic: [IC] R00TW0RM Set (Read 17829 times)

f/64 · « **on:** Thu, 13 September 2012, 22:06:12 »

While GH was down and marooned on DT, interest was expressed in a R00TW0RM key cap. I had the idea over in the key cap section first and it really seemed to gain support so here we are.

Except for the iMav (which will be Dye Subbed) these will be SP Double Shots.
DCS family done in the SP font.
ON on GQM to match the GH colors.

G and H keys will be Row 3 profile
R-R-R-Roll Back will be Row 1
The iMav dye sub will also be Row 1
Everything else will be Row 5
(If there's interest in changing a profile, we can do that)

The cost before shipping for the set would be $13.52 if we ordered 100 sets. There's always a possibility this could change slightly, and shipping will increase the cost of course.

In for a set!

no thanks

though it is tempting for the G H and iMav keys...

How much without the rip/roll/root keys?

I don't really want to start splitting them up as I imagine it'd just become too much work. Sell off the others?

Still so much.......HATE.

But they have helped in the progression of this site. Put me down for one set please.

You still forget that iMav is there, in all his Dye-sub magnificence.

That is worth it alone.

These are part of the history of Geekhack.

And besides, any such ruination was only temporary, and GH has rebounded.

So if I come break into your house you are gonna start wearing cat tshirts right?

its more like with tattoos... you might get a tattoo at a certain point in your life, and then 'grow out of it', but it still reflects a certain point in your life that you can hold some reverence for.

it's not as serious as a tattoo... honestly i think the r-r-r-rollback key (not the 1x) and the r.i.p.ster key are dumber than the rootworm key. i think that one is actually pretty funny

)

anyway still in for a set. jwaz you can have the G H keys from mine

If there's not significant interest, or enough to make the set worth it, then we can see about dropping some keys. Everything included in the set was something somebody suggested except for the 2x1 that I did as a play on C-C-C-Combo Breaker since the site had been rolled back before.

why are we bothering to "honor" him again?

Regardless of whether he's here or not, you have to admit he was a pretty big part of GH and has shaped it at least a little into what it is now. You don't have to look at it as honoring HIM anyways, look at it as BANNING him. Or just don't buy it; it's only part of the set because GHers were interested in it.

demik · « **Reply #21 on:** Fri, 14 September 2012, 00:39:26 »

he was a self centered prick that only did **** to feed his own ego.

he didnt shape **** for the sake of the community. he did his wikis so people could praise him.

f/64 · « **Reply #22 on:** Fri, 14 September 2012, 00:44:44 »

You're certainly entitled to your opinion, everyone is. I only dealt with him a couple of times, and I wasn't around for the banning so I'm pretty indifferent. If you don't want the key cap, don't buy the set. Or buy it and set the damned thing on fire.

I don't understand the hate. These are just some keys to mark events this year. Lighten up. Do one with "I paid Rag's rent" on it. (Not true but a little funny) Thing's happen on this forum and better to laugh about it than blow a fuse.

I'm in for a set, but you are missing a period in the R.I.P. of R.I.P.ster. Does SP have helvetica as an optional font, or would that be an extra fee?

So I take it you'll invite him to your next birthday bash?

) You never get this angry unless his name is mentioned...... did he do something to you?

The ONLY thing that gets me angry (unpleasant) are cowards who attack women and slimes who take advantage of children.

I left it off because it offsets the center alignment and looks odd to me, but I can change it if desired.

Demik always gets riled up whenever ripster is mentioned. Personally, I think he's the new GH troll, atleast after the new GH started.

mkawa · « **Reply #32 on:** Fri, 14 September 2012, 14:37:53 »

so quite a while ago we had an idea, which was to have some rootworm keycaps made, and then to have a contest to see who can destroy one or more in the most creative possible way, on video of course.

jdcarpe · « **Reply #33 on:** Fri, 14 September 2012, 15:23:21 »

I'm in for a set.

I think the Rollback backspace key should have the arrow graphic instead of the R-R-R-. If you do it in WYSE font, it should be two words. <-- Roll Back. If Cherry font, just one word. <-- Rollback.

I'm not sure if we would include it with this one; we certainly can if everybody wants it. I would just be worried about adding more caps to this one when a few folks are already buying it for just one or two caps. I'll definitely mock it up, as a few people have expressed interest, but it would probably end up as a different set.

Ripster makes sockpuppet accounts here, and I guess your post looked like something he would say. Unless you are him, in which case - Yo.
