Everyone gets it, it’s just that no one agrees.it's not a bizzare thread when you actually understand the topic correctly, which noone seems to do
So you browse GAF with page up and page down?So, I thought about this, and I certainly can't be the only one who thinks this... but Mouse Wheels suck.
I hate Mouse Wheels...
I have how it feels to scroll with them,
I hate whenever a game uses Mouse 3 as an input,
I hate it when changing weapons is bound to the wheel (that at least you can change usually)
Not only that tho. Every Mouse I ever owned, without exception, had issues with the wheel after about 2 years of use. EVERY MOUSE...
Doesn't matter if it's a Razer, a Microsoft, a Roccat or any no-name brand out there.
The mouse wheel either doesn't register scrolls correctly anymore after 2 years (skipping inputs basically or doubling them), or the Middle Mouse button beneath will start having issues.
so the mechanism for the wheel has clearly not been perfected yet, and I kinda bet noone is actually trying to perfect it at this point either anymore.
So, why not simply have either 1 or maybe 2 raised buttons between Mouse 1 and 2 that have a good and easy to actuate click, and are as sturdy as any other button on the mouse?
One of these could simply be Mouse 3, so you can still use that to click scroll on website etc.
High end mice could have touch sensitive buttons that can be used as a touch scroll wheel as well, as to not lose the mouse wheel input completely on it.
So, do you like the Mouse Wheel?

The OP's take is so bad that I'll now disregard any opinion of his past, present and future.
He will never know, he can't scroll down.This thread backfired
I use 2 different mice and Apple one is mostly for web browsing or photo editing. They are not ergonomic.Had to use one of those for work. Words cannot describe how much I hate that thing.
Especially if Carpal Tunnel sounds fun to you.Use Apple's MAC mouse then.
Now there was an unreliable nuisance.Are...
Is TC championing a redesigned laptop clit?
I'm not going to pretend that I don't use the mouse wheel while web browsing. I definitely do. But my DPI button is mapped to PGDN and I use it a shit ton as well. As mentioned in my earlier "nobody's gonna read all that shit" reply, I agree with OP that for certain games a mouse wheel is a hinderance and you could do something better with the space. Especially in FPS games. *shrug*So you browse GAF with page up and page down?
Not every brainfart needs a thread, man.
This. Wtf.A mouse wheel is invaluable.
What the fuck are you even talking about.I'm not going to pretend that I don't use the mouse wheel while web browsing. I definitely do.
