This is not necessarily an "ego-stroking" post but it's something I feel that should be shared as getting a comment like this from a member is very very rare indeed.

You seem like a genuinely honest, unbiased, wholesome person and I admire that. It's hard to find good people these days and I'm grateful that you're keeping Neowin a fun place to hang out.

We as staff do a hard job which many members don't realise but the comment above makes it all worthwhile.

Radish?

Yup, in 100% agreement.

Also, I'm not gonna name them but...

I caught a mod on a bad day once (their own words), the next day spoke to them about it, and we reached an agreement. Since then, I have a lot more understanding and respect for them. I much prefer having nice things to say than sniping!

Radish, I have to say...after working with you as a Mod for a while and also just all the work you and the other staff put into the site is what keeps this community growing when others have long since failed.

I don't think I ever got one of those nice messages, mine always were....well...you know how it was being the resident Mord-Sith. ;)

Keep it up!

That comment wouldn't happen to be from Allison B would it? :p

No, it wasn't from Allison B :rofl:

You guys and gals that are on the Mod staff do a often thankless job. You know how it goes though, no one ever says anything when you're doing a good job, only when you're not. ;)

That is the case most of the time :/

    • 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!
