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


Recommended Posts

When you realize that your stark naked while checking Neowin.net........

When you come to the conclusion that "is neowin right for you?"

When people ask what you do for a living and you just blantly say "NEOWIN"

Or you do emotions in real life.... :no: :yes: :unsure:

When you start to Hail Neowin.net as the "Savior to all of Man kind"

...you have a nice face tan (or sun burned) because of the monitor radiation.. :p

...you install a pc behind your bed just so you can browse neowin while you are having sex :rofl:

**changed second one a bit... proper english now**

Come to think of it I remember Keldyn designing a little wallpaper for me a long while back :p I probably still have it somewhere (i dunno where)... now he's just a lowly moderator ;) Gotta say though Neowin has sure changed a lot since I first came (and no that's not necissarily a bad thing) some completely random things I remember (with no explanations, just random things!): Neowin before Hosttyme, the old theme, when Tingle was still around, scoobie, faction, moretensenj (if i recall correctly he made a big stink about how we deserved what we got on 9/11), when Neobond used his real name around the site... ah the memories :p

And I just had the sudden urge to type this... I hope its not a sign of addiction :/

Keldyn

Forum Super Moderator for Neowin.net :blink:

...when your samurize script includes World News, Neowin News, Neowins Latest Forum Posts.

...when you have to stop lurking and post once a while so that people remember who you are.

...when you think you've lurked for so long that people will look at the joined date, compare it with the post count, and cast you off.

...when people who joined only a month ago have a higher post count that you already and you're damn embarrased!

...when you feel really depressed and lonely, with nothing to do, because Neowin is down.

...when you start wishing for the day Neowin lets you donate your hard earned cash!

...when you remember the weeks when Keldyn (I think it was Keldyn anyway) disappeared from the site for a few weeks and absolute panic broke out in the community - we were all worried!

...when your member number is in the hundreds (Only just mind you!)

    • XBOX is at the end of its generational life cycle and wasn't selling much anyway. They need to figure out the pricing for XBOX Helios. However, I'm not buying the DRAM shortage with AI preferring HBM. I think it's industry gouging.
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026: Best Dolby soundbar deals from Sony, Samsung, JBL, Polk, and more by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered the JBL BAR 800 which is a 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos/Vision soundbar. The unit is on sale for its lowest ever price of just $800 making it a solid offer. However, there are many more options to choose from and in this article, we have made a compilation of the best deals including from Sony, Polk, Yamaha, Denon, Samsung and more. Sony's BAR models are currently at their lowest prices which makes them solid offerings. The company's BRAVIA Theatre Bar lineup is designed to suit different home cinema needs. The Bar 5 is an entry-level 3.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, supporting Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, S-Force PRO Front Surround, and Vertical Surround Engine for immersive audio with clear dialogue. The Bar 6 upgrades to a 3.1.2-channel configuration by adding dedicated up-firing speakers for more convincing overhead Atmos effects while retaining the wireless subwoofer. At the premium end, the Bar 7, Bar 8, and flagship Bar 9 are single-soundbar solutions featuring Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, which creates phantom speakers for a wider surround field. Bar 7 includes nine speaker units, Bar 8 increases this to eleven, and Bar 9 offers thirteen speaker driver units promising the most expansive soundstage and acoustic performance. All models should integrate seamlessly with compatible BRAVIA TVs and support the BRAVIA Connect app for setup and control.
