Almost worse than Chris' secret manlove problem.  Almost.

I hate you a little bit more right now. If it weren't for your infatuation with Calvin and Hobbes like me, I'd ... I'D... crap I don't even know what I'd do.

BOOG, hold me... :cry:

Members with a decent amount of posts 700+ should be treated with more respect than n00bs. Like get more chances or whatever.

This is one of the reasons that I hate why boards have a post count. Some people, not all, think they should have special rules because they have more posts.

Another thing. The swear filter is kind of like TV censorship. Like on TV you can't say the word "d**k" as in insulting someone. But you can use it as another word for penis and you could say "my d**k is a d**k" and get away with it. It's confusing :laugh: it was on something I caught a glimpse of on Comedy Central where comedians were figuring out how to slip in jokes without getting bleeped :laugh:

Today on a very special Dr. Phil....

This thread cannot be used to complain about previous warnings. If that continues then the thread will be closed.

Wanted to make it clear I wasn't complaining about mine. Just drove me crazy I couldn't remember why I got warned. I'm over it now. My OCD has calmed down :p

It was more the people who are saying things like:

"I got a warning just because I told someone to try another forum"

when in reality they said:

"go find another forum you (snipped) (snipped) (snipped)"

What happens when your warn level gets to 100%, do you get banned?

My warn level is at 80%, and will probably soon get raised for some stupid reason.

I really like it here at Neowin, Im on here everyday, I dont try and get it raised but it just does every so often.

So what happens at 100?

How do you do it? I've been here for so long and still have to receive my first warn, not that I want it though. If you like it so much you can start by behaiving. Your warn leven does decrease when you behave well. May that be a motivation.

I stopped screwing up around here a long time ago. I'v had issues with mods, messed around with the wrong group (neowin.network oh what a hassle), and have posted things I shouldn't have.

Iv become alot less of a poster these days, but I still read daily. I pretty much forgot about my 100%'er, just have a good time here.

I had never been warned in my 2 years before becoming a mod and my main forum is RWI! Honestly though, it is common sense, if you feel the need to call some one an idiot or any insult, think about why you are doing it, then just respond to his post more thoughtfully, it will only make you look better. Be the bigger man and just try to keep it civil. The only rules I have read are from when people post them in threads and also when I have to warn someone.

Don't know if this has been said or not but, When I got in trouble oce I had to do community service.

Why not make the guys here with high warnings do some type of community service to bring their warning level down a bit?

Just an Idea. btw, I have a zero warning and don't plan on getting any either. :)

Lol, wanna hear something funny? I posted a classified in my local paper today for my iBook and left with out giving my phone number, I completely forgot. Now that was stupid of me.

you probably looking at the members customer user Title.

No, it says it as there Group. It might just be that they were banned, and I just now looked at a post by them, so therefore it would have banned by there Group.

I think I'm confusing my self. :pinch:

Ive had my main account suspended due to a personal quarrel with a mod,and a harmless post addressed to some mods at neowin...it all started with a warning regarding a torrent to a game which I actually owned...yeah. Kinda pathetic, since no swear words were even used or anything. Two week timeout was given!? I used a bugmenot account to login...didnt do anything bad at all (made a 1000$ post thing..which was infact real) and was banned along with my main account, shortly.

It really sucks to lose an account with a ton of posts, decent too, I may add. I just want to be left alone now. If this revelation gets me banned...then I really dont know what to say. Im being honest here, so hopefully not.

If a mod wants to pm me or anything, we can talk about it lol..instead of a ban.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
