Paul Paliath Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 What? Neowin needs... revenue? I thought this place simply ran off of adblockers, love, slavery and Neobond's semen. Hm, what a strange concept. A forum. That requires... revenue to operate? This changes EVERYTHING! Have the boys at the lab confirm this!

Jase Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Your post made me want to Re-Subscribe.. I have been meaning to do it for months now but never got the time.. but thanks to you.. I am going to resubscribe this week. I have been a loyal Neowinian since the dawn of age.. back in the time where Neowin was not just a forum but something more.. Things changed, people passed away, got fired, left.. whatever reason.. I still stayed.. and am going to till well something happens to me. Neowin has been my Second choice in navigating to, first has been Gmail. We don't subscribe to seek benefits from Neowin and it's staff, sure thats an extra.. We subscribe to support the staff and the site itself to see it excel into greater things! Hello?; Gifts!, contests, Servers, Less Downtime - All because of Subscribers supporting Neowin. Your final dot point is harsh, Ad's make or break the site, Neowin has done so well to make the ads less 'Attention seeking' and more simple.. You should of seen it waaay back when. In conclusion, You're a veterinarian on here! Why on earth are you coming out with these allegations is beyond me :/ Leave or Stay; Neowin is doing damn well right now so, here's to more subscribers!

Hello?; Gifts!, contests, Servers, Less Downtime - All because of Subscribers supporting Neowin. You make a good point, as Neobond has stated in the past any money that is made is usually put back into the site in the form of new features, competitions and contests. So by supporting neowin by subscribing, your actually making the place better :) nice to see some more subscribers coming on board :yes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/912392-why-i-wont-subscribe/page/6/#findComment-592788806 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmz Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 No way, I'm not going to support a site that's wasted so much of my life! The quicker it goes down the quicker I can get outdoors! Just kidding of course :p If you don't wish to subscribe, then don't, but don't discourage others from doing so (it looks as though it had the opposite effect though). :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/912392-why-i-wont-subscribe/page/6/#findComment-592788812 Share on other sites More sharing options...
