My fucking razer mouse has two buttons on the left, two on the right and two bellow the wheel.

>I even autistically wash my hands before I use my computer.
there's your problem. chemicals in the soap residue react to the rubber and cause it to wear away. you should stink your hand up your ass before using your mouse

I'd buy a Black & Decker mouse

Jesus, some autistic likes to pretend Logi and Zowie are decent companies.

Even was shill enough to pretend the Glorious mouse is nothing but shit.

How hard did you squeeze it?

Bottom I use for melee top I sometimes use for something like switching to flashbang or some other less important function because I frequently forget about it.

Nobody asking for the opinion of an ASSFAGGOT player

what's a good mouse

I'll usually use it for melee, bullet time, grenades/equipment or interact

Beyerdynamics are really great but they somehow can't get their shit together when it comes to cables

Shit gets under my nails

>crayola optical water mouse
where do I go to buy one of these?

Alt+F4 and Enter.

Both those companies make lots of good mice, don't listen to him. The chart is accurate, with the Crayola Optical Water Mouse at the top.

I have that exact same mouse with no issues, are you a janitor living in a sweltering boiler room or some shit?

it's a troll list, all the shit wireless mice are at the top and all the good ones are at the bottom

haha how dumb can you be. nah, corporations are on your side buddy.

Yeah, it often wears and the wires break near where the cable connects to the monitor. Soldering it is quite the pain with the gauge being so high.

my ancient MX518 started double clicking and after about 5 days of it i couldn't take it anymore so i ordered a G502

the day after i ordered it my MX518 stopped double clicking

oh well, LEDs and the infinite scroll wheel are cool

that material is there so that it doesn't happen to the plastic underneath

The early models uses really shitty rubber that does not last. Apparently later models uses a better type of rubber and doesn't rub off as quickly.
I'm pretty sure it's due to sweat, heat and constant contact with your thumb that causes the rubber to rub off easily.
Here's what mine looks like after a year.

Thats what they said 4 years ago when I bought it, that the early models issues were ironed out.

It's not that they're designed to last X amount of time (unless they're apple). Shit just naturally falls apart from use.

whatcha doin to your poor mouse op? do you have stress problems? how hard are you squeezing it?

Not even comparable. Mine is soft rubber and yours is clearly plastic

Planned Obsolescence.
Things break down on their own, so you buy more.
Long lasting items will bankrupt manufacturing businesses

it's like a hard rubber

>Being too retarded to understand that the designs are tested, and that they go through several iterations before they even commit to producing any

Yea Forumsirgins don't realize that large companies literally have machines that press these peripherals a thousand times in a minute to test them.

this happens when you claw grip

>unless its purposely designed to make you want to buy a new one.

user, planned obsolescence is a very real thing. It's essential for businesses so they can have repeat customers.

>RAT7
Shape is actually nice since you can change how long it is. Thumb rest and wide right side is nice on the ring/pinky fingers. Sensor was shit and would eventually start skipping.
>Storm Recon
Nice shape and worked well enough. But the rubber material on it would kinda wear off and feel weird.
>Avior 7000
Shape is fantastic. Top part is wide for my ring and pinky fingers to grip. Left click started double clicking though.
>Naos 7000
Though I lost two buttons, the right side rest is godlike. But the mouse is a bit too big for my hands. Currently, I use it at the office.
>G502
Honestly, I didn't like it from the second I held it. The right side felt so flat and thin so my ring/pinky were just dragging on the pad. The scroll wheel was super nice though.
>Kone EMP
The grip on this is kinda weird with it going wide at the top, but slimming down at the middle. But I like it a bit more than the G502. I actually tried holding it in my left hand and it seems to fit perfectly though. Maybe the germans built this mouse backwards.
>Rival 310
Despite having an ergo mouse shape, the budge on the right is too low on the mouse to do me any good. The top portion is rather thin for me. Probably should have gotten the Rival 600 or even the 500.

Well, those are my thoughts on the mice I've own over the years. What are yours?

It's not Logitech.

I hate the "s" on some Logitech mice because I didn't realize it was a way to describe a different version of the mouse, I thought it just meant people were talking about a bunch of them

I had the same issue on my Rival, though I didn't hate it, the groves are unique to where your fingers naturally rest. I ended up getting the meme rival with the OLED screen on the side and the rubberized shit on the sides is significantly harder and doesn't show any sign of wearing down like that.

Lmao fuck Corsair mouse's, I bought four ironclaws in a row and had to send back all four because the scroll wheels broke off after one week, what a joke.

Had that exact mouse, ended up taking all the rubber off, and then bought a better one like 1 or 2 months later.

I must have really acidic/disgusting fingers because the rubber on the sides of my G502 which I've had since they launched it looks like it's melting off. Plus all the nooks and crannies make this thing impossible to keep clean, and the copper scroll wheel is corroding and is covered in holes.

The best part was, when I had to move back in with my parents, my dad threatened me unless I didn't get a job
>IF YOU DON'T GET A JOB IN THREE WEEKS I AM GONNA DRIVE YOU TO MCDONALD'S AND YOU'LL FLIP BURGERS
When he calmed down a bit I asked him to sit next to me all day and see what I do and the very first thing I did was apply to all the fast food restaurants in my area with four different profiles. One for management with a grad degree, one for management with just an undergrad, one for part-time with a note saying I was in graduate school and needed a part time job, and another with no notes and no experience. Just my basic information. He lightened up a bit when he saw what applying for a job was actually like these days, but still pulled the "just go down there and ask for a job" bit. Which we did. They said no. We went home. My parents never brought up the job search again, they just send me emails with links to job postings I might not have seen.

I thought this was a meme, but I saw Puppy at the dota 2 international use the Duck mouse.
I still thought it was a joke but did some research on it.

Apparently they're repackaged mice that got discontinued, you need to mess with the settings and overclock it, but it goes up to 5000 DPi instantly. the thing has a little water well at the bottom, that was originally intended to watercool the mouse, but got repackaged with the duck for children. I've got one coming in the mail for like 10 bucks, just so I could test it.
I'm still banking on it being a joke, but it'll look cool at least.

No company that does this is worth working for, in case you didn't know. It means whoever is in charge of hiring is given absolutely no supervision and they're going about their work in the laziest way imaginable.

In other words management doesn't care and the incompetents have the run of the place, which is why they need to hire people so often. People keep quitting.

begone, boomer. Brand loyalty is the dumbest shit I can possibly think of. Imagine having loyalty to somebody who only wants to exploit you.

The only explanation I can think of is that the very first batch of these mice used a poor type of rubber that just degraded very quickly, a friend of mine bought one of the later models with the RGB and it hasn't happened to him yet.

Many anti-cheat services will ban you for having AHK running.

What exactly is wrong with corsair Scimitar? I need those extra fuckng buttons and I'm not buying a fucking Razer mouse that's overpriced garbage or third party chink shit that just has you bind keyboard buttons to the extra keys defeating their whole fucking purpose.

Games that have anti-cheat aren't worth playnig

Games with anti-BOTTING services will bother to detect if you're using autohotkey, and even them many of them will not actually punish you unless you're exhibiting botting behavior in-game.

Name a game that will explicitly ban you for having autohotkey open on your PC.

steelseries sensei
had it for like 6 or 7 years, no problem

sprint or melee, also I put macros on there like auto clicking or media player controls so I don't have to take my hand of the mouse to change music

Nowhere is perfect, America currently has the problem of literally having too well trained a population to support itself, and already having enough people to do all the shitty jobs nobody wants to do.

It doesn't look to me like you can get banned just for having it installed and open. As I interpret it they're leaving the ruling of it open and subjective so they can refer to it in the case of not having to look into it too deeply or to cover their own ass if they mistakenly ban someone when they shouldn't have. It's political speech.

From what I understand about Blizzard's enforcement they're able to determine what an autohotkey script is doing and don't give blanket bans for people running any software that can possibly run a script.

>too well trained a population to support itself,
That's only a problem in countries where the companies own the government and prefer to import millions of low-paid uneducated laborers because they won't demand humane treatment, higher salaries and workplace safety. Sure you could spin it in a way that makes it seem like the population is the problem, but since when having educated people was actually a problem in a country that makes fucking sense?

Yeah but I can't imagine being declined even as a burger flipper. Here we have so many fucking job places right now employers literally will suck your dick just to get you. Even if you never had any experience.

>mouse has tons of little holes in it

Attached: 1320253527082.gif (236x224, 1.89M)

people aren't buying into higher dpi=better mouse anymore, so they market being lightweight now instead

It's just another way of saying "we want to pay someone peanuts and we've determined you won't be happy with peanuts".

Not at all. I have a very light grip.
It's just the result of years of constant use.

It is a pretty fucking good cosmic joke, not gonna lie.
Can't even make peanuts because of that.

Try making a grammar mistake or two and not running it through spell checker before you send it. If you make it sound like you're an educated white male, your chances of being employed decrease dramatically.

I used a G9x for five years and managed to rub down its rough grip to a smooth surface, but not actually eliminate the grip entirely. I've had my current G502 for probably a year and a half and it's not even showing signs of wear.

If they're determined to not hire white males that information would come out in an interview, bucko.

I guess it probably doesn't help american goverment doesn't provide any benefits? Employers here get massive benefits and tax breaks for hiring people straight after they finished uni.

Its ugleh, heavy for a mouse and the ergonomics are shit, its a pinky killer

>pinky killer
What

It could be heavier though?

>its a pinky killer
Okay there, baby hands mcgee

Looks great to me. It's heavier than a shitty razer mouse I had, that's for sure, but I don't have a problem with the weight at all. You adjust to any weight of mouse you get, really, it's just that going from a plastic piece of shit to something with metal in it is a big adjustment. Ergonomics are great, every surface your hand touches is smooth. It actually demonstrates great knowledge of where a person touches a mouse by intentionally putting gaps where it doesn't. I don't know what you mean by pinky killer, mine goes right below my ring finger and helps it hold the mouse.

>using DeathAdder right now

I like it.

>heavier
what? Its 130 grams if im not mistaken, which is pretty heavy for a mouse, but not by much, but if you use it with the included weight its too much
>what?
I tried one I got from a friend and my little finger hurt like hell after an hour of using it, which is weird since its advertised as a mouse for big hands, and my hands measure 20cm from my wrist to my fingertips
>looks great to me
Well, everyone has their own tastes

Left top is Melee, left bottom is push-to-talk

I still have my first non-ball mouse and keyboard kit I bought for $10. By some miracle all of the keyboard, while polished by fingers, still has completely visible letters, and the mouse is just a featureless, polished plastic bop. Even the wheel has no rubber left.

The current scenario seems to demand that the over educated masses of the younger generations leave the US to work and help lift third world shit holes out of destitution and establish new infrastructure, since they can't or won't do it themselves. At that same time, undereducated masses are flowing into the country to do menial service work and maybe get an institutionalized education.

Things are moving way too fast though, nothing is stable, and American society could possibly implode on itself collapsing the core of the scheme.
