The custom badge colour idea is interesting but it may be too cumbersome. Most of the colours are already being used by the staff in their badges. Also, the remaining (potential) colours may not appeal to everyone.

I find it rude for people to say they'd prefer this, they'd prefer that or "i'd rather use the services for free" in a such a thread like this when the staff obviously work their butts off.

If you can't subscribe or have no intention to then what's the point in saying anything else? I know i'm not a subscriber, but I have been and I rarely visit here anymore.

It doesn't make me a hypocrit to be saying this though.

Quick question that I find amusing & confusing:

How could you have been a subscriber before when you only have one post & this is the post? :D

Well, I've decided to add myself to the list of subscribers. I must come here at least 10 times a day (this site keeps me sane at work), and it's almost as bad as my habit of checking Facebook.

That's good to hear! :) Good to see more and more people supporting Neowin too.

Neowin is strangely addictive, isn't it...

For reasons I'm not going to divulge I was upset with this site and its staff back in August, and told myself I'd stay away from it. Two months later I came back, posting actively, hanging out on the Neowin IRC server and even re-subscribed.

Why? Because it's still the best tech forum on the interwebtubes, and has a great community.

Yes, it is rather addicting in a sense. I like the community and how, for the most part, everyone gets along even during a debate, and whenever there's a question there are always at least 3 answers and supporting material. Neowin really is a great resource, and I figured that seeing as I come here so much (I have been lurking for a while before I decided to register) that I might as well pony up the little bit of change it took to register and help support the site.

This (Right click and save as) is a PSD I picked up from Neowin that I used as long as you have the font that matches the sig it should be ok in Photoshop.

If you don't have PS btw Rob does all the Sigs on here.

Enhanced Service & Blog

Apart from supporting Neowin financially we also offer extended services for members for a measly ?10 (or round about $12.50 USD)

This package allows you to start a blog, offers extended topic/post editing, flood control significantly shortened, boosts PM storage to 200 messages, raises the upload limit for attachments to 1mb, includes a support forum and your online status is updated with + in front of your name and a shiny badge to show you support Neowin.

There is also an extra forum tied to the package where Subscribers are invited to post topics we wouldn't allow on the public forums (although nothing illegal is welcome there, our forum rules still apply).Sign up here!b>

When you say 12.50$ is that a monthly fee or an annual one ??

Edit :Never Mind .. I found that out

How can I pay for the subscribtion though Since we don't have PAYPAL (They Blacklisted Lebanon on PAYPAL), do you have something like a bank account I can transfer the money to ??

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

      By Legend20 · Posted

      You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.

    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support

      By Legend20 · Posted

      Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
