[?] Qualify as a Neowin Vet


Recommended Posts

So ask for a job and then resign. :D

There are some.... unpleasant... initiations that take place in the dark recesses of the subforums that make an ex-staffer eligible.

I'd rather not go into details. It is too painful to recall. :ermm:

Ouch! I heard the rumours. Now to know they are true!

On another forum site I used to frequent, old members simply got a little icon next to their name depending on how many years they had been registered. I don't think we need a whole user category or new badge just for people who have been here a while :/

Those same initiations are required every so often to keep your status too... speaking of which Mark isn't it nearly time for your renewal? :whistle:

Not that simple. Not every staffer is set to veteran. It's typically those who were on staff for a year or more and contributed regularly in that time. In the end, its really administrator discretion.

The removal of your soul?

In order to qualify for a Neowin Veteran, you must:

  1. Have your soul beaten down to a pulp by Administration.
  2. Brainwashed to believe that Neowin.net is the only URL on the internet.
  3. Join the cult of Neowin for several years and be initiated on a monthly basis (oh please, not more beatings!)

Better or worse than the staff initiation?

Because I quite enjoyed that! :cool:

I actually find this quite amusing. You want a badge because you have been a member for over 5 years? You make it sound like an achievement while it's pure your own choice to be here so long. If you really want a badge you can subscribe for only ? 10 and wander around with an orange one for a whole year. If you stand out you may get a black or even green badge.

As you can see, you have it all in your own hands.
