Osiris Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Well congradulations to the neowin community, its been a glorious 200,000th posts and who could forget some of those classic posts like all 12,000 of scoobies daily posts the 1200 hilarious posts I made that got deleted all the flamming threads that have ended up on the floor and even the forums that have come and gone, like the babes forum :p And all the threads which Kelydn has moved or locked :p Yes memories, the community has certainly come along way, and what better way to celebrate 200.,000 posts then by getting on with our posting, and making it 500,000 Congradulations all. Just remember the community has come along way, and it wouldnt be possible without the dedication of all neowininans. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osiris Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 yer I know mate, I just didnt want to send out the message to newbies rading the post that we tolerate spam. You know Neowins as twisted and curly fries would have worked in better twisted, curly get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted April 22, 2002 Administrators Share Posted April 22, 2002 I would like to thank my PC for crashing in the middle of some of my more important posts, without that we would be celebrating 300,000 posts by now :p Nah it does go to show tho how dedicated everyone has been since the forums re-opened for the 7th time back in August 2001 - We said at the time that we hoped it would be the last forum opening for a while at least and well it came through with the help of Hosttyme and some very dedicated posters here. I also want to remind people that for all the flames and bad quality of posts here we've had to deal with just shows the tolerance of this admin. People that are now banned had more than their fair share of chances and I am concluding this to say thanks to all the staff and mods that help keep Neowin a great place to be. We are envied by our tech related site partners and copied (poorly) across many sites, but you cant copy THIS whacky admin.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mortensen Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 I also want to remind people that for all the flames and bad quality of posts here we've had to deal with just shows the tolerance of this admin. People that are now banned had more than their fair share of chances and I am concluding this to say thanks to all the staff and mods that help keep Neowin a great place to be. The fact that I'm still allowed to post is a miracle. :p No, but I've caused enough fuss with some of my posts, as has Osiris with his posts about the Queen mother, and me with September 11th. But these arguements just go to show further how much diversity there is in the people that visit the forums. Neowin also keeps improving, but I STILL think the righthand bar is too bloated on the main page... though it is better since the poll was reintroduced a while back (it should still change more often - I'm sure the regular visitors get bored of it as much as me). How about a daily poll, with suggestions for ideas coming from a new forum section... at the very least it should be every several days (say four days). Also, thanks to Neobond for bowing down before me and admitting that he is insignificant in comparison to me.... it really cheered me up. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h71y6 Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Grats Neowiners.... ain't no better feeling than being one eh? I'm surprised how much better the community is now. At least everyone's mostly on the same page. It's baffling how i'm not banned. I mean, i'm like the epitome of a worthless piece of trash! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
