TokyoKiller Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Well its been five years for me, but I am pretty sure it was when I was looking for information about Windows Longhorn and stuff.

garbagepoe Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I found this place many years ago when I was looking for XP visual styles. I lurked around that forum for years but now I actually want to post stuff since I recently got back into forums for some reason.

Nagisan Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I honestly have no clue how I found Neowin, I believe the most likely though is through a search result for a computer issue. It probably helped me, so I ended up Guesting around Neowin for awhile. Finally decided to join after probably a year or so.

Kondrath Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I can't remember... Though I have a feeling it may have been through the Tommy Tallarico message boards in 04 or 05. There was a mod there named aNDREW (Not sure if it's the same Andrew from here...) who made a sticky about the best free tech tools / guides etc. Possibly Neowin was on that list. One of the first things I did here was post a thread about a bully from school possibly hacking me because he had my IP. I was 14 or 15 at the time and I knew basically nothing about computers. All of the members started lol'ing and saying "Him having your IP is the same as saying he has your home address." ... He really was port scanning me or something, though... Then somehow the guy followed me here to Neowin and we started arguing in the thread, and then John locked it and sent me a PM. I felt like an idiot. And that is when I technologically matured... :p ... and as a side-note, that same bully and I are now friends. Neither of us can even remember why we hated each other to begin with. :rofl: Ahh... good times.

Nagisan Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 who made a sticky about the best free tech tools / guides etc. Possibly Neowin was on that list. Now that you mention tech tools/guides, I remember now. I use to use Neowin back in the old days of XP, following some of the guides it had up on the forums on tweaking services and other XP things. Found it through google while searching for XP tweaks and what not and bookmarked it. I eventually registered but rarely posted back then (I think around a year or so after I registered I had like less than 10 posts), then I got into overclocking and what not and started posting much more often.

Spdoinkle Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I found Neowin from a Google search. I was originally just looking for a Vindictus access key. Which I found from this site. If anyone is ever interested just go to this link https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/937750-official-vindictus/ And you can ask Bei337 for an access key. But ya After registering to Neowin I decided to use my time by surfing the site and am actually so far enjoying the site.

Average Lewis Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I'm pretty sure it was from another computer orientated website, so "Link exchange / Linked from another site".
