Allison B Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Neowin is a good example of why I love to use forums. Ah, other forums. What's the point of having a community where the minority of people can't express their opinion? There is no progress, only stagnant fanboy-ism and piety. Nothing more than cheering the heroes and booing the villains. Neowin doesn't have fanboys. There are no white knights that step in to defend the administration if they are criticized. Administrators here love critique, they love to listen and improve. That is why neowin is so great. And I find it unique that a forum is like that. Also the moderators on staff have historically been very fair and understanding. They are staunch and liberal and I'm surprised to see that their is almost no censorship here. Very often is their any deleting here. Nor moving. It's simply a warning just in case it were to happen. This forum is a haven of intellectual progress by far. Surpassing any educational institution I have seen. Neobond we should be paying YOU tuition.

Shaun N. Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Over the years Neowin has been a haven for entertainment and troubleshooting for me. It's my one stop shop for answers.

include Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 It's certainly one the best out there...compared to, say, the Gamespot forums. Oh god...I cringe every time I look at their message boards; ****ing retards or children who can't make complete sentences bitching about the tiniest details of IRRELEVANT issues. ...yeah, neowin's good...

Sam Symons Veteran Posted May 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 1, 2008 Amen to that. Neowin is freaking great. It's much better than say, on NZ's GPStore comment section. I lol every time I see that. Especially the Tags for 360 and PS3 products, and Halo 3 etc..."ps3 killer", "xbox sucks", "die microsoft", "sony fails", stuff like that. Epic win. Newin's good for stuff like that. Rock on Neowin!

MonatanFX Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I have been searching for my main PC related forum for a few weeks now after getting into PC gaming/upgrading etc. And have to say, this forum has the most eye pleasing graphics, the largest array of subjects/boards, and isnt dominated with hot-headed teens who chat rubbish. All in all, a great forum! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634404-i-love-this-forum/#findComment-589367736 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted May 1, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted May 1, 2008 You have to admit a lot of communities out there are hard to 'stick to', because a lot of the members are so dull. But here, there's a whole bunch of fun people to talk to or argue with. haha.

+shift. MVC Posted May 1, 2008 MVC Share Posted May 1, 2008 Ah, other forums. What's the point of having a community where the minority of people can't express their opinion? There is no progress, only stagnant fanboy-ism and piety. Nothing more than cheering the heroes and booing the villains. There are limits to "opinion expressing" just so you know :D Neowin doesn't have fanboys. There are no white knights that step in to defend the administration if they are criticized. They just haven't reared their ugly head yet. But there are fanboys. I have to say Neowin is one of the better moderated forums though. Otherwise, welcome to the forums. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634404-i-love-this-forum/#findComment-589367769 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malisk Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I don't agree with the no fanboys comment either, but I've grown kind of used to that and don't take it as seriously as I once did, hehe. I think I've moved on to mostly similing at those kind of posts instead. :) Especially when it's old and tired arguments being used. Yes, Neowin is an example of a quite encompassing community that covers so many subjects, way beyond Windows that one may think at first sight and hearing the name. What I like seeing most are those funny threads that sometimes pop up, heh. Oh, and being early on informing myself on computing news. While the journalism may be more or less "amateurish" at times (not automatically a bad thing though), the news often come quickly and accurately.
