Sorry to be a spoilsport, but I find this thread quite desperate. It seems that this thread is a free pass to spam anything you like. But most importantly, that fact Neowin has almost hit 8 million is amazing. So why tarnish that by using this thread to almost "cheat" our way to 8 mil. That fact that we got here by posting what we have posted, to contribute etc and then flood this thread with crap just to boost the amount. Power leveling almost. Seems to disrespect everything Neowin has worked for. But then again, this is all my E-pinion and that ultimately means nothing.

You use to be a subscriber... what happened?

I don't consider this a free pass at all, I just know we won't hit the 8-million mark in time, because this seems to be a slow couple of months... If you can't beat'em, join'em!

I see your toaster, and raise you a hammer, 4 standing bullets, and 2 knocked down!

I agree.

Radish?

Everyone is just having a bit of fun.

I've laughed more in here than I have in all my years on Neowin :p

To actually worry over a potential couple of hundred/thousand of posts of images/offtopic in here in comparison to the MILLIONS of helpful/useful ones on the way to 8 million is silly IMO :rofl:

But hey, if moderation wants people to stop talking nonsense/joking around in here, I can understand why and would respect it.

ps. As long as the 8millionth post isn't Rappy posting Pedobear, I'm fine with things ;)

Never a truer word spoken :yes:

/not the pedobear post

I think if any of the mods had a problem with this thread it would've been closed by now...

That said, it does seem like a truely spam thread but hey, it's funny and if it helps us meet the 8m mark who cares! :D

Oh and i thought it was high time this came up...

Well, there's egg and bacon; egg sausage and bacon; egg and spam; egg bacon and spam; egg bacon sausage and spam; spam bacon sausage and spam; spam egg spam spam bacon and spam; spam sausage spam spam bacon spam tomato and spam;

I was going to say the samething, right down to rappy posting pedobear LOL

If a mod/admin didn't like the way this was going, it would be locked, we would all be banned, and no one would speak another word of it.

or are they waiting for the 8th million to pass, then do all of that LOL. It is only a bit of fun, and at least it is all in one topic, rather then scattered over the forum, making the mod's job harder.

I am still laughing over the cow smiling from a few dozen pages back.

I showed my girlfriend Pedo bear and she thought it was really funny.

She's 12.

that made me giggle

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
