You know you've been on Neowin too long when...

[Core]

the color of your skin is bright yellow like the emoticons on Neowin... Because you're suffering from kidney failure.... Because you've grown into your computer chair since you stay online reading the neowin forums! :D

[no name]

- you type neowin.net first in any textbox anywhere on ur computer

- you fill in neowin.net in any blanks you're required to fill in any types of forms

- when people ask your phone numbers, you tell them to pm you

- you give a girl you meet in a bar your nickname in order to let her pm u instead of giving our your phone number

- you phone microsoft word customer service or technical support because you cannot find Go Advanced! button in the program

- you dunno how to sign in postal mail because you can't find Upload Sig function on the paper

[johngalt]

disable email notification b/c you get more notifications of topics that you reply to that receive a reply than you do Spam - collectively on 17 different email accounts.

[memNOC]

filter neowin.net domain in IE and password protect the profile.. ;)

[johngalt]

Nah, easier to just turn off the email notification lol - if I miss a day, that's entirely too long to begin with lol - so I am gonna be screwed anyway.

besides, with about 1 reply every 3 seconds, no need to have email verification turned on.
