kimsland Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I joined because I like how active it is, with its many different forums What first brought me here was Autopatcher, back when it was in full swing (I mean full) I've come back because, I had a good look around and it was a cross between Bleeping Computer and here I asked a Mod there for a little help, and I'm still waiting for the reply. Whereas here the Mods are very (I mean very) quick and helpful all the time. Basically it was the Mods here that was the icing on the top. I'll see how things go for a while. Oh and I like "Activity" window, that helps too. I suppose the only thing I don't like is the huge banners, I think its the members signatures, all over the place. I find that a real put off, but I suppose its in grained now, so no use arguing about all those ads ! Anyway, thanks for having me so far. And to the active Mods: your good work is noticed :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/595450-how-did-you-find-neowin/page/20/#findComment-591079696 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpiom Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I found it like yesterday, and I don't remember how I did it... Strange. But I think it was through a Google search, I was searching for something - Windows related I suppose. Great site, can't say the same thing about the members though :p ...nah, just kidding. I love you all! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/595450-how-did-you-find-neowin/page/20/#findComment-591126002 Share on other sites More sharing options...

"link me to this forum you go on so much", and it was Neowin. Was interesting so I registerd. *Note: NiceCarpet-ng.

CGar Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 A google search brought me to an article listed on the BPN, and I noticed that I pretty much liked all of the news listed there. I checked it casually for about a year or so in the Lo-Fi version (that's what google brought me to), not realizing that it was actually a huge site and forum! After clicking the full-site button, it changed my homepage and news source forever :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/595450-how-did-you-find-neowin/page/20/#findComment-591145064 Share on other sites More sharing options...
reactionary007 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Searching for information during the Neptune and then Whistler betas brought me to this site. I can still remember what the front page looked like. Thinking about it makes me miss college and the simple life... but only for a moment.

Pendaws Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I have been coming here for years and always thought I had nothing really to add but, lately I thought I might try and see if I can maybe help or interact more with people of similar interest so, I took the bull by the horns and joined. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/595450-how-did-you-find-neowin/page/20/#findComment-591163954 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph B Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 XP Visual Styles, and the amazing Hardware section. It's odd I can remember that, being that i've been here for quite a few years.
