I got mine from the health department (kinda) for free bc of my disability so.

The one on the picture and the one Im using is a company named "Anir" (or maybe the company is AnimaX International ASA acctually..) that makes. They come in Two sizes, Large and Medium. Large is if the with of your hand (not taken thumb into account) is 8,8 - 10 cm and Medium 7 -8,8 cm.

Looking at the package now :P

Very nice replys and got some good ones on pm also, seems actually its a subject close to quite a few people, i can add that i myself has overcome arthritis as a child and i was fortunate enought to be fully healed after 9 years at age 14 (rheumatoid arthritis) althou i do feel some minor discomfort when in extreme situation (clicking with right hand index finger for 12 hours is one)

Im thinking maybe someone has special screen (Sight) or maybe somekind of sound hookup (Hearing) or something completely different


About some or even mant PE players having mental or emotional problems i can only say show me a group of people that share a common poison that dosnt.

i guess in all those 'games' you have a a good bunch of 'disabled' people
who most of the time have a great time doing stuff in a way they couldnt in RL.

but ofc its a pretty private thing

so respect for the ones posting about these little problems!

i was a bit shocked that dino from EP is disbaled..

Skam, I was intrigued by this vertical mouse, but was disappointed that it had no scroll wheel. Then I found this...and, if I read the description right, it includes an auto clicker (I know bad word, but seriously, do all the crafters want RSI from playing EU?)

Evoluent VerticalMouse, Vertical Mouse, ergonomic mouse, ergonomic computer mouse, computer mouse, optical mouse, carpal tunnel syndrome, repetitive stress disorder, RSI

I'm certainly considering getting one as I have the early onset of RSI in my mouse hand.

On the professional mouse tho there is a scroll function. Not a wheel but a button you hold in and use the mouse and it'll scroll the way you move the mouse.

The mouse you found sure looks funny!

It may look funny, but just take your regular mouse and tilt it 90 degrees and notice how much nicer it feels...plus the auto click function....hehe, I just added it to my Amazon wish list since I've got a birthday coming up. And honestly, for a professional grade ergo mouse its not bad at $60.
