You are, by definition a fan boy.

Can someone please close this. I just subbed so I could make this request.

The point of the thread has been served and it's about to turn into hardcore troll bait.

I'm going to buy a rifle and start camping out on the Neowin bell tower soon >.>

Close it why? Maybe there is a need for a spot on the forums to air your concerns. I'm sure there would be a lot of feedback, both positive and negative that would greatly benefit this site. So far things have been relatively civil so I see no reason to close it....

Well I will say this, I have spread tons of Microsoft hate here lately and nothing of mine was deleted. So I don't agree. It's still a nice place if you can get past all the fanboys.
Are you for real? :|
It's crap like this that is destroying this site.

I don't like the implementation of Metro start screen and the removal of the start button, I was able to present this in a newspost and even in a few forum posts but didn't have to resort to arguing with others about it lol. For some others that appears to be impossible :/

John Spartan, you are fined five credits for repeated violations of the verbal morality statute. :p

True, the point of the thread is whether you like it or not you are required to report issues to a staff member, this also includes asking why a certain post was deleted.

And lastly, even though we assume you think extremely highly of us, we can in fact NOT read peoples minds, and we also can't keep up with every single forum post, so in that sense it might seem like we're ignorant to some bad behavior going on, because a certain member thinks it's above him to actually report the issue, and instead create a whole new topic on why we didn't act upon something we should have telepathically received via our computer screens.

With that said, closed.
