I love this forum.

The fact is, when you capture genius, freedom, and free market principals and intertwine it with Neowinian journalism you get something new. Literally, Neowin is a philosophy of it's own.

Truly, it is radicalism in its essence. It is literally anarchy of the human mind, clearing of the road blocks, the mind on haywire, taking the best ideas, and therefore being the definition of avante garde.

The users of this site basically run it. Sure, they're mods and admins, but a lot of the genius comes from the posts here. This is the power of the masses. Literally, the smartest forums on the net.

To extol the virtues of Neowinian thought is literally something that requires peer reviews by PhD's in philosophy and the rest of the liberal arts.

snip ...and isnt dominated with hot-headed teens who chat rubbish.

All in all, a great forum!

that's because we take them out back and rough them up a bit.... :whistle:

compared to, say, the Gamespot forums.

Or YouTube. Or Bebo.

ITT we list websites that suck compared to Neowin.

I take it you do not visit the Gamers Hangout often, and let me suggest you keep it that way.

Neowin doesn't have fanboys.

Yeah right. :p

But, to be honest, I think Neowin has matured as a community. When I first joined Neowin I was a massive noob and I was not the exception. I think over time the real core of Neowin users has matured to what we have today.

But, of course, people still have strong opinions. I don't think anyone would call me a "fanboy" even though I strongly encourage the use of free software and sometimes drop in passive notes about where and why companies are restricting your freedom. But it's not like I go into every Windows thread and type "windoze sux".

So I think "fanboys" or "people with opinions" exist, but we have matured :)

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.

Neowin did have fanboys (they were warned harshly) and still does in some sense. They may be fanboys on other forums but here they know to watch themselves and their comments more closely.

More often than not (in what I have seen), posts are locked rather than being deleted. I have in numerous cases, used the alert button to send a message to mods about a certain post. In those cases, mods have always stepped in to go through each post individually and clear out the flames/crap posts and leave the original discussion. That painstaking process has not gone unnoticed so kudos to our mods here.

Finally the fact that just the other day, I was able to send a private message to Neobond and have a conversation with him like anybody else, just goes to show that whether or not they are a mod/admin/etc., they are still people and care about the well being of their site.

Congrats Neowin.
