[Introductions] Introduce Yourselves to Insider!

Hello Insiders! If you are reading this, you have likely just joined the community here on Razer Insider, so welcome! We are glad you decided to join us. Please make sure to read the Insider House Rules and Posting Guidelines before you go ahead and start posting ;). Whether you are a newer or older user, feel free to introduce yourself in this thread, and get comfortable. I am Brandon (aka @Jenjar) and I come from Canada. I have been a fan of Razer, and have been involved here on Razer Insider for almost 5 years now, all starting with a Razer Deathstalker and Deathadder 2013. Since those basic green backlit products, I have fallen under the Chroma spell, and eat, sleep and breathe Chroma. Earlier this year I was chosen to become a Razer Vanguard, and so far it has been a great experience contributing to this great community! Outside of Razer, I also have interests in computers as a whole, exploring the great outdoors and of course, playing video games. Currently, my favorite games

Hello Insiders! This is a guide on how to earn Silver here on Insider. In case you do not know, Razer Silver is Razer’s loyalty reward’s program, and is obtained by spending Razer Gold (link) (Razer’s virtual currency for buying games, gift cards and much more), playing Paid to Play games with Razer Cortex and Razer Cortex Mobile, participating here on Razer Insider, among others. You can view all methods on how to earn Silver here. In this thread, we will be focusing on how to earn Silver here on Insider.

Which Keyboard is Best for You?

Hello Insiders! With many models and types of keyboards to choose from, it can be difficult to choose a keyboard that suits your preferences. Between those intense gaming sessions or those long office workdays, this is a guide to help answer that age-old question, “Which keyboard is best for me?”. This is the second iteration of this thread. This thread will be separated into 5 sections: 1. Introduction 2. Membrane / Mecha-Membrane Keyboards 3. Mechanical Keyboards 4. Optical Keyboards 5. Conclusion You may view all sections, or you can just choose to read the specific one(s) which you are interested in. Section 1: Introduction to Razer’s Lineup: At the time of writing this guide, Razer sells four different types of keyboards: Membrane, Mecha-Membrane, Mechanical and Optical. They are all each very different, and all have different price points. Razer also offers three different sizes of keyboards: Full size, and tenkeyless (TKL), and 60%. I will mention the latter two more when

Which Mouse is Best for You?

Hello Insiders! Choosing a mouse is often a difficult process. There are many mice aimed for certain game genres, hand sizes and grip types. It is important to choose a mouse which fits your preferences in those key areas, and which also has features which you may also find useful in everyday life; from gaming to productivity. This guide is intended to answer the common question, “Which mouse is best for me?”. To start, I recommend using Razer’s mouse fit tool, which is located on their site here. This tool will help you find the best mouse for both your hand size and grip type, which will improve comfort and accuracy while using your mouse. The page itself also provides information about both grip types and hand sizes, which I will be mentioning often throughout this thread. This guide will be split into 8 main sections: 1. Introduction 2. Productivity Lineup 3. Deathadder Family 4. Basilisk Family 5. Mamba Family 6. Orochi Family 7. Naga Family 8. Viper Family 9. Conclusion You

[NOTICE] Broken Insider Achievements

Hello Insiders! I have a little notice about the broken achievements here on Insider, that do not activate on their own and require manual activation from us. We can only manually activate those what should be renewing achievements once, per achievement, for each user. Examples of those achievements include: "Who's Next, You Decide" "That's The Stuff" "Mod Nod" There are also Insider Achievements that are not renewable, but which are also broken and don't activate on their own. We can also activate those for you as well, once per user, per achievement, as they would normally. If you require any achievements to be registered manually that you have not received once before, feel free to send me or one of the other Vanguards a PM with proof of the achievement requirements completed, and we can get it sorted out for you. Thanks for reading, and apologies for the inconvenience.

Jenjar's Razer Holiday Gift Guide

Hello Insiders! My name is Jenjar, if you do not know me already, and I am a Razer Vanguard. Since it is the holiday season once again, I decided to come up with a little holiday gift guide, featuring a couple of my favorite Razer products that I use daily. If you have any questions on the products I have talked about below, feel free to reply to this thread or send me a PM and I will assist you to the best of my abilities ;). Cheers, and Happy Holidays to all! Razer Ornata Chroma: My favorite keyboard I have had to date, coming from two Razer Deathstalkers previously. I chose it because I was looking for a keyboard that had a bit more of a tactile feel, instead of having mushy membrane keys like the Deathstalker, and I did not want a full mechanical keyboard at the time since I was used to lower level keycaps. The Ornata features Mecha-Membrane Switches, which are still membrane key switches, however they have a metal clip inside of them that creates a tactile feel when yo

I've decided to create this new thread highlighting key information you need for life here on Insider. I give a shoutout to @kajira, whose old Guidelines and Tips thread has been a big inspiration for mine. There are many embedded links in this thread, which are all written in non-bold green text.
