I've figured it out!

This is all an AmigaWorld.net conspiracy to drive more users away from A.org!!!!

Get this aw.net guys, you didn't beat us then and you won't beat us now!!!


Bah, you found out. Need a more subtle plan next time...


...and no, I am not laughing, not at all, I wish we could act like grown ups about this :/
Is that all you got? I\\\'ll take your best shot!

Ironically, a cursory glance at the site seems to suggest they're all taking it a lot more calmly than people here.


I'm as surprised as you are?! No idea why it is so calm, to be honest. I'm glad it is though ;)

I liked it better when this site actually talked about the Amiga.


Amen brother.

No.  I prefer freedom of expression.  I wouldn't want to be part of a site where I'm not allowed to express my honest opinion in case it may offend someone or make them angry because they don't agree with me.  That's why I never joined aw.net back in the day.  Banning and censorship killed other sites.  Just look at ann after the forced registrations.

I'd moderate myself, but then I'd get accused of prejudice...

I moderate myself by not slinging shit in the first place, pretty simple solution if you ask me :idea:

J'accuse! You used rough language.

Keep that shit to yourself.

This might well be the only thing you and I will agree on now.
You will never have a chance to "MODERATE" me again. Since it seems that any thing we say will be considered a "personal attack", and nobody is talking Amiga anymore - I guess I'm gone.
You might have very empty room to MODERATE soon.

The way I see it people arent perfect, sometimes theyre moody, sometimes life throws them a bad day, sometimes they just gout out of bed on the wrong side, but its how a person moves on (or not) that decides whether theyre a "public" nuisance or not. The terms of conditions are quite reasonable here and I really dont understand why people keep bringing up the whole "freedom of speech" thing. There's never been a time my thoughts have been moderated, even if Ive passinoately disagreed with someone else. The only time I can see it being a problem is if someone is being unreasonable/trouble making/etc. that moderation ever comes into things. Even in the real world freedom of speech only allows you reasonable leeway. A person would be evicted from a pub (random example) for carrying on to the level that might see a person moderated.

Yes there's been a more than average amount of arguing and whatnot here lately, but in humble opinion it'd fade away if people just let it go.

As for my vote, I havent yet, but Im leaning towards the 2nd and 3rd options. Leave things more or less the way they are, but maybe be a little quicker to give a friendly nudge on the shoulder if a person is starting to behave like a clown.
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.
