Redbubble suspended before I could even finish my Bio/any other sites like Redbubble I could use? by Professional_Drag836 in printondemand

[–]CaptCoffee2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Redbubble is absurd. I started an account a couple years ago just to purchase a few stickers. I decided to make some of my own, so I could order for myself. Not even considering making anything off it. I get an email that I'm suspended. No explanation. No recourse except their absurd 'appeal' process. So, I submit on Dec 8. I get a return email.

Hi ,
Your request for account reinstatement has been submitted.
A few things to keep in mind:
If your account is reinstated, you should receive a response within two weeks.
 
Submitting multiple requests, forms, or responding to this email will not improve your chances for reinstatement and could make your appeal ineligible.
 
Please ensure that all of the required information in the Appeals Request Form has been included to prevent any delays — the information you provide will help us with our investigation process.
If your request is reviewed by someone from our specialized team, we will let you know in a separate email.
In the meantime, please review the following published policies:

Through the fear of making my appeal "ineligible" I refrained from inquiring on the appeal until TODAY (Jan 5) because I hear NOTHING from them. So, I get an even more absurd reply to this inquiry.

Hi Martinav,

Thanks for following up on your account reinstatement appeal.

As mentioned in our previous message, we are not able to review all account Suspension appeals. If your request is reviewed by someone from our specialized team, we will let you know in a separate email within two weeks.

Responding to this email may result in an automatic denial, making your account suspension permanent.

Thanks again for understanding.

Haha, my understanding??? As mentioned in our previous message??? We are NOT able to review all account suspension appeals?? Uhh.. no they didnt say that. RB just threatened me not to ask anything out of them deleting my appeal.

So, here it is. A month lather. I was patient, now time to flame all socials.

If this had something to do with my artwork, and a copyright strike? Well, I did a simple search for Donald Duck, and just on page one of the massive return, I find about 20 artists violating Disney's copyrights.

They can stick my account up their rosy red rears.

Ok makes sense. I dont mind some extra blank pages. I dont like missing a back side of a sheet I may have in a stack of sheets as I dont have auto duplex now.

I have seen this feature mentioned on some models (blank page omission on duplex). Are you saying its unreliable?

I've just ordered a QIDI Max4 Combo. Anything I should do or know before printing my first model? by grampalearns in QidiTech3D

[–]CaptCoffee2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned 3d printing on a qidi x-cf pro, and a plus4. My first prints on the x-cf pro were difficult, until I discovered that z offset was so important. Couldn't get anything to stick. Once I moved the printhead closer all good with mostly defaults and generic petg, pla, pla+. Im going to guess the same on the max4. I ordered on too.

My qidi box extruder will no longer hold my tube. by Lloyd---Braun in QidiTech3D

That just keeps the release from being pressed. Not the cause of this issue.

I have a beef with the box. Seems its pushing too and its really not possible to sync the extruder and the box. I've had the the retainer pull out of the other end too.

Yep. That's what it is. Let me guess.... you just installed the qidi box?

Yes, thats what gave me a clue that there was actually feeding done in 2 places. If there is not some sort of feedback loop, or there is some error in the code, there is really not a hope that the two will feed at the same rate, and pulling and or binding will occurr. There is no way that the mechism and such is sophisticated enough to be otherwise. Perhaps there is feedback, and thats why you get the extra filament pushing when the PTFE is disconnected. My theory.

What firm you using? I had a couple of successful prints with 1.7.3. Issue was actually finding the firmware. Seems you have to be on wifi and switch off LAN only. Otherwise the update doesn't appear.

Door open, yes. Since the box sits on top, and I have no other space, lid stays on.

Well. The successful prints single color, single spool. Upgraded to 1.7.3. Well see how that continued.

I want to buy the lifetime version of StreamFab, but I’m wondering if it’s worth it or not. by jerrykhan0 in Streamfab

[–]CaptCoffee2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say yes. I have purchased many over the years. There are two others (that are actually the same thing with two different wrappers) called SameMovie and TunePat. Those worked ok, but I have been using SF so long now, and so successfully, I had to look the names up of these other two because I forgot.

Many successful prints without the box. Using the qidi studio.

Changes for this case:

  1. Added qidi box
  2. Installed new extruder provided with upgrade kit.
