What happened to NeoWin?


Recommended Posts

I would love to add to this discussion and share my personal experiences but I would probably get banned or at the very least "warned".

Oh snap, get warnings for dumb crap on here sometimes.

No disrespect to Neo, but I was going to buy a subscription until I got a warning for the most stupidest thing ever (twice now from same mod). I now rarely post on here, I hang out in game section now and again and that's it.

Rule of the thumb when it comes to Neowin, if you have something negative to say, don't say it because it's just not up for discussion.

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.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Where is the "Wow!" emoji? This'll have to do 🤩
    • I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!
    • It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
    • If it makes anybody happy, others will need to be bitter about it. (apologies to Yogi Berra)
    • I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.
