This is software marketing materials, sourced directly from site. If sourced, there is zero issue. Until 2008/09, Neowin used to be a glorified RSS reader, and yes, it was all copy and paste, side-wide, and if the article is sourced, then their really isn't any issue. Not sure how I can explain it any different. You're making nothing into something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circaflex Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I'm going to take my own advice. Thanks @adrynalyne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neowin isn't taking credit for writing it. They are just pushing spam which is reason to ignore it. Danielx64 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted February 11, 2017 Veteran Share Posted February 11, 2017 Topic cleaned and closed. Thank you for the feedback Danielx64. I think this could have been handled better overall, but if the News Editors / Admins need more info, I'm sure they'll be along to reply or PM you for more info. Unfortunately I can't keep the topic open due to unrelated problems which will no doubt continue if the topic were left open. +Raze and Elliot B. 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted February 11, 2017 Administrators Share Posted February 11, 2017 I wanted to make a reply for the record, rather than people assuming we ignored this topic. Razvan has been updating the Software section since 2005, and this is the first complaint I've had about the guy. Software news (due to its very different nature than our main news coverage) doesn't fall under the same editorial guidelines as the main news does. Plus,, Razvan has been keeping us updated for over 11 years, if he doesn't respond to one of your comments, that must mean he is busy with his real life somewhere, since he also has a job and a life outside of Neowin. So no, he isn't getting "sacked". +Raze, Draconian Guppy, +Gary7 and 8 others 11 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
