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....

:laugh:

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)"

yea i look at a post and i see the *snipped* and im thinking *doh* i missed what they said!! :cry: :laugh:

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.

example? :p

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.

    • Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky      
    • Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
