how would they know?
I had bought 70 Hamster switches. Lubed them. Installed them on a QK65 only to find out that after the fact, my LShift, Caps Lock and PgDn weren't working. Opened the board back up and I absolutely disintegrated the switches. I don't think I've ever seen pins in that state before lol.
I then used some spare reds I had lying around to test the sockets and just make sure it wasn't a haunted socket and rather just me building my first board with PE foam you can't see the sockets through. Those were fine. So I now have 3 Aqua Kings in my board that no one knows about except me lol...and now all of you I guess, damn. >

i actully had a similar problem! i have this switch bc one of the pins from a switch got stuck in the pcb,so i made the unholy decision to cut a spare switch's pins off( i have like 200 of those switches so i could afford to do it) and it somehow worked...I had to take this off my chest lmao >

You are forgiven, child. Thou walk amongst thine peers in MK Heaven.
Though I don't think mine were as bad as yours...at least not that I'm aware of. The pin didn't snap off, or so I don't think. Honestly, I have no idea...can't see shit beyond the PE foam, so your guess is as good as mine. But at least merely clicking in other switches didn't result in them having the same fate.
​
So note to self in future builds, while it might be more time consuming, the initial install will be with trash reds collecting dust, then once I'm confident the are seated okay, I'll swap them out for more expensive switches for the final install. >

you will, you will know... >

Every.Single.Press. >

I mean, it is the down vote key. >

I like clicky switches on the toggles (caps lk, num lk etc.) and tactile everywhere else. >

I love this idea! Thanks for the tip, I’m gonna bite your style. >

I'm thinking of buying these keycaps for my monokei Neko.... how the quality.. is the font purple of blue? >

its actully rlly good! tbh i recommend them >

I feel a disturbance in the force... >

How do you sleep at night?! >

i don't 😔 >

That’s a fucking crime. >

Now I want to put a blue in my left control switch and see how long it takes to sound like a red again.
I almost don't use my mouse and ALWAYS use my left control... So window switches, switching tabs(1 by 1, not jumping to). Then averaging 2-3 per line of code, and about 300 each day.... >

Looks like soul cat to me >

You’re a down right loony aren’t you… >

i had no choice 😔 >

Down with the brown! >

That's a warcrime 😂 >
