fr33k Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 sp1 on the front page is warez a violation of neowin policy. so it looks like neowin has a double standard. magoo gives me a pm warning about warez for talking about sp1 ' and magoo post direct links to downloads on the front page :mad: I thought I was a neowin member, but I guess I'm not. I don't want to be a member here , so you can delete my account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 Originally posted by Borg77 Like the old saying goes "One thinks something one minute but thinks something another minute".......... pretty weird really... i think the sp1 link was provided so neowin gets more famous or something... there should be a standard and ppl (everybody) should follow it!

It also slows down the server and angers all of Neowin's members. Neowin potentially could lose members if they continue to do that. JMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

News gets around they have the link and therfore more people show up to download it, putting a higher strain on the server and it's bandwidth.

Cara Veteran Posted June 29, 2002 Veteran Share Posted June 29, 2002 Originally posted by lazydesert i seriously doubt neowin.net was hosting sp1 . . . Not hosting directly, but some people were still coming to the main site just to get the link...even that adds strain to the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 Originally posted by lazydesert i seriously doubt neowin.net was hosting sp1 . . . that isn't what she is saying... she is simply stating that more ppl come to the site so that puts a strain on the server... neowin only provided the link and ppl show up to use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
