I think the emphasis on paying the subscription should be to support the site and not for what you receive for doing so. If you are here alot, and you enjoy your time or it helps you with tec info, i think you should if you can afford it, pay the subscription.

I think if you use Neowin alot or are on there alot the most of you can do is Subscribe to help the site out its not because people dream of it, yeah we joke about it but we aren't that sad.

I've been thinking about it, just mainly to help support the site because I like it and use it alot :)

However, like others are saying, I don't think I should have to see the ads if I'm PAYING.

Most sites you pay for don't have any.

I subscribed because I've been visiting this site since oh... 2001? It's only fair, I figure I've cost them more than the $16AU subscription in bandwidth over the years! Also, I personally don't mind having the ads still, they never bothered me in the past, they still don't! (except the inline ads that sometimes come up and stay for no reason until you find another inline ad and hover over it and release, but you get that!)

Seriously, they really don't get in the way at all. Heck, I use Adblock but I've turned it off specifically for Neowin even though I'm a subscriber. If it's a site you like and you want to support, why complain?

I subscribed yesterday because I finally decided how much I love Neowin and wanted to support it, for all the hard work NeoBond and other staff have done!

I cannot wait till I get my new sig, coloured name, avator and stuff! Looking forward to it! :D:D:D

I have to say I've noenstly not noticed any ads... and the reason for that is proberbly because I don't go around looking for them. I haven't noticed any which are blatently obvious and there aren't any on the forums are there? I'm not using an ad-blocker, before you ask.

Because the ads are not very noticable to some, Neobond should keep them for subscribed members in my opinion because it brings him more money, which is what he needs to keep the forums running smoothly, and also he deserves it for all his hard work and time.

About the "Boobies" topic: That sounds... interesting! :p :p :p

How long does it take for you guys to get 'subbed' i 'upgraded' via NoChex 2 days ago and i'm still waiting for an Admin to get round to it?

Putting you in the Subscriber still is, as far as I know, a manual process. You'll need to wait till the responsible admin, Redmak, finished the file.

Yeh, I subscribed last week and I think it took three to four days, because it's manual. You should definately get into it before the end of the week.

Did you use PayPal?

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
